The palate is dry and echoes the aromas of the nose. It also features nuances of ripe lingonberries. Lively citrus acidity gives the wine structure and carries the whole to a slightly mouth-puckering finish.\u201d \u2013 Viinilehti 2021<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The award-winning <a href=\"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/viini\/weinhof-519-pink-riesling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Weinhof 519 Pink Riesling<\/strong><\/a> was created through collaboration between Norex&#8217;s wine team and Thorsten Mehrelin from Weinhof 519 vineyards&#8217; Rheingau Riesling and Pinot Noir grapes. The goal was to create a distinctive Ros\u00e9 Riesling where the Riesling&#8217;s acidity would taste clearer and the Pinot Noir&#8217;s berry character would come through more strongly. Since German wine law does not allow ros\u00e9 made from Riesling, a drop of water had to be added to the wine, making it aromatized with water.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fresh acidity makes Weinhof 519 Pink Riesling an excellent social drink and a great pairing for risottos, salads, and goat cheeses. Its bouquet reveals citrus, rose petals, red currants, flowers, raspberries, and wild strawberries. The wine is dry and balanced, with refined acidity, raspberry notes, cherry notes, and floral character.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Weinhof 519 Pink Riesling won bronze in Viinilehti&#8217;s Ros\u00e9 Wine of the Year 2021&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7531,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_page_background_color":"","_page_header_background":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[451,450,438],"tags":[],"makuelamys":[],"class_list":["post-7530","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-arrivals","category-rose-wines","category-we-recommend"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7530","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7530"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7530\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7533,"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7530\/revisions\/7533"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7531"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7530"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7530"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7530"},{"taxonomy":"makuelamys","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/makuelamys?post=7530"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
