Niepoort Teppo Peixe 2015 - White Wine

Tasting Notes

Light and bright in color, Teppo Peixe has an aroma with citrus notes and white flowers. Slightly saline in the mouth, it is very delicate, involving and with a high acidity that allows a refreshing and crystalline finish. The slight carbonic content, when accompanied by Asian-influenced dishes, elevates the wine and works almost as a final finish to clean the palate. Light, discreet and elegant, it is a very easy wine to drink. It should be drunk very cool in Riesling glasses.
