Acclaim
A spicy style, showing some power behind the ripe grapefruit and apple flavors. Honey and cream notes emerge midpalate, with hints of smoke on the finish.
— Wine Spectator, Oct 2010
The lightest wine from the 500-year-old Stadt Krems winery. It has an attractive edge of spice to go with its apple and cream texture. Not for aging, but a delicious aperitif wine.
