Martin Pomfy, Veltlínske Zelené Selection, Small Carpathians, Slovakia 2019

A Veltlínske Zelené (Grüner Veltliner) from the Small Carpathians region. Fermented in acacia and oak barrels for 15 days and matured in stainless steel tank for 8 months (first month sur-lie). Minerals and wet stone open up to a peachy undertone with hints of Acacia honey. White pepper-seasoned citrus and stone fruits on the palate. Sur-lie ageing brings creamy, buttered texture and depths of yellow fruits. Bitter citrus zest leads to a warm finish.
