TASTING NOTE
Wijngaard Hof van Twente Veyn 2020
white wine
This is an interesting wine. Although it has a somewhat green overtone in the beginning, this disappears when the wine is open for a while. In the nose, we have scents of celery, combined with aromas of citrusfruit and yellow fruits. The palate also shows a bit of a green character but there are also yellow fruits, citrus, some orange peel and pine. This wine comes into its own when you decant it or leave it open for a while. Don’t drink it too cold! The wine goes well with grilled green asparagus.
