Oszkar Maurer – Fodor 2022
Grašac AKA Welschriesling
Serbia, Subotica
Fodor is an attractive amber colored wine from 60-year-old untrained bush vines.
The nose combines a bright, floral and herbal character, tones of hibiscus and acacia blossom, a touch of apricot, with traces of linden honey as half of the harvest was affected by noble rot.
On the palate it delivers a crisp and refreshing sensation of ripe citrus fruit; fresh, rich, deep and well-structured. Dominated by ripe Reinette apple with a hint of dry ginger.
Merging power and freshness, brisk acidity and saline minerality, this is an amber wine with length, layers and depth.
The mineral-driven profile lingers effortlessly on the finish, leaving a long-lasting stamp of pure terroir expression.
Ageing in old 1000-liter barrels for 16 months added an aromatic complexity, fine spiciness, smooth texture and aging potential.
