    Round and balanced Grauer Burgunder from the Palatinate

    Fresh notes of pear, citrus, and green apple with a subtle spiciness. The Hensel Aufwind Grauer Burgunder is a characterful white wine from the German wine region Palatinate. Made of the Grauer Burgunder (Pinot Gris)-grape with fruit aromas and a refined spicy undertone. The vineyards are located in the hilly landscape of Rhineland-Palatinate, where the grapes benefit from a favorable climate and calcareous soil. A small percentage of the wine undergoes a short aging period in large oak barrels, which adds extra depth without overpowering the fresh character. Curious about other wines from Hensel? Then also try the zachte Weissburgunder!

This vinification process results in a wine with a beautiful balance between freshness, fruit, and a light influence of oak.
