Grape
100% Riesling
Tasting notes
Light greenish yellow with silver reflections. The inviting nose shows delicate orange blossom, fresh peach and candied mandarin zest. Medium-bodied, with ripe tropical fruit and mango, fine acidity and a hint of orange marmalade on the finish, followed by a mineral aftertaste. Already drinking well; pair with seafood, spiced Asian dishes or roast pork.
About the Winery
Domäne Roland Chan is a boutique estate in the heart of Austria's Wachau, founded in 2017 as the long-held dream of Roland Müksch and his family, and named with the family name of his wife, Sharon Chan. Based in Wösendorf, it tends just over 2 hectares on the Wachau's famous dry-stone terraces, across four sites: Achleiten, Klaus, Bach and Höll.
The estate looks after the entire south-facing side of Ried Höll, its warmest site, with Riesling planted in the airy upper rows. This wine is aged for around 10 months in steel tank and 14 months in bottle before release, and bottled as Smaragd, the Wachau's top category for its ripest dry wines.
