Ewald Zweytick – Tosca Grauburgunder 2012 – Südsteiermark

Slight green hue, quite pale colour intensity. Pure nose. Moderately intense fruitiness here. There is notes of pear, yellow plum. Gentle spiciness and some herbal notes. The palate offers more generosity than on the nose. This is a bit more than medium bodied. It shows a hint of oak ageing on the palate as well, but finely integrated oak. There are some hints of roasted hazelnut. Slightly bolder fruitiness. It does have a good length. Fruitiness is quite rich. It suggest a hint of sweetness or rather good ripeness. Still the finish is distinctly dry, with a good level of freshness. Attractive wine with a good drinkability today.
