Wirsching 2024 Scheurebe QbA dry

Scheurebe is an aromatic white grape variety that yields jump-out-of-the-glass, pungent wines known for their intense bouquet, vivid acidity, and bold flavours of blackcurrant (cassis), pink grapefruit, and tropical fruit with engaging freshness.

Scheurebe is a speciality of the Wirsching winery, and they are seen as the regional pioneer for this grape variety. Hans Wirsching was actually the first to plant this extraordinary varietal in Franconia in 1952. With their decades of experience, they have become true experts in Scheurebe wines.

Fermentation is at a lower temperature compared to Wirsching's classical wines that are bottled in the traditional bottles 'Bocksbeutel'. This preserves the carbon dioxide, giving the wine its tangy character and pleasant freshness.

Food recommendation: This wine pairs perfectly with light, fresh vegetarian cuisine and Asian dishes.
