Production Details Falstaff records four months of maturation in stainless steel. Vinorama instead lists stainless steel and a large wooden cask for vinification/maturation and reports “Säure: 5.5 g” without a per-volume unit or analytical basis; the vessel descriptions conflict, and the acidity observation is not proposed as total_acidity_gl.
Tasting Notes Orange zest, mango, fresh yellow apple, mandarin zest and a mineral accent; powerful, with yellow fruit, pineapple, saline minerality and balance.
