Description

Product description for Velich SW Beerenauslese 2017

Info

Liquid gold from the botrytis-affected Chardonnay grape, spontaneously fermented and aged for a long time in wooden barrels.

Colour

Dense amber with orange and copper reflections.

Nose

The 2017 SW Beerenauslese presents itself with exuberant aromas of honey-glazed and roasted hazelnuts, dried dates, apricot chutney, sweet apple, and exciting spice notes from Kampot pepper to cardamom, ginger, and cinnamon. It truly heralds a sweet and intense work of art that comes close to perfection.

Palate

Once on the tongue, the fascination increases immeasurably. The spectacular, beautiful sweetness is framed by an extremely lively acidity, complemented by the spicy notes of the nose. The cinnamon and peppery components stimulate the palate in a most pleasant way and build up to a never-ending aftertaste. Even though hundreds of dishes immediately come to mind, this wine would also be perfectly placed as a magnificent solitary wine, as it shines above everything else. In combination, I would focus on dishes that are intense yet purist, as this wonderful wine needs no unnecessary distractions.
