Turgowy

2019, cider, 75cl

CHF 17.00

Turgowy blends apples from two Thurgau growers, Helmut Müller and Christiane Krieg, grown on old, untreated high-stem trees near Egnach on limestone scree soils. Crisp apple and white flowers open the nose, with a fine, elegant bubble carrying a lovely astringency, snapping freshness and a quietly salty finish. Dry, mineral and light on its feet at just 4.5%, this aged 2019 vintage from Jacques Perritaz shows real depth after resting years in bottle. Lovely with a Vacherin Fribourgeois, served cool without ceremony...
