Tasting Notes
The Mayer am Pfarrplatz house classic! This wine, which is based on Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, Rotgipfler and Zierfandler, presentsitself as very flavourful and aromatic. Citrus and pear fruit in the nose, playful and elegant on the palate, with refreshing crisp acidity on the finish.
