I still have this strong prejudice against supermarket-branded products, when it comes to wine. But ZERO Riesling by Rossmann is where I'm ready to admit I'm wrong and challenge myself to be less superficial.
This is a real riesling with everything you expect a riesling should have in its flavor.
It has a light and balanced mineral taste, with a low and harmonic level of sweetness. Tasting notes are reminiscent of the sourness of a green apple.
The aroma is exactly the one you expect - wildflowers, green apples, and lemon zest.
It will definitely have a permanent place on my wine shelf, and I look forward to making a decent sangria from it this summer.
Important note: I split this bottle for two days, and on the second day aroma became weaker, and the sourness in taste became rougher. So I will recommend drinking this wine all at once.
Recommended food pairings: fish, seafood, cheese plate, chicken breast.
