Feldmarschall von Fenner

Other White Grape or Blend

This beautifully crafted wine is made from 100% Müller Thurgau grown at the incredible altitude of 3,280 feet above sea level, in one of the highest vineyards in Europe. The grapes are harvested in October and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. In order to obtain greater structure and more complex flavors, the wine remains on the lees until February.

Tasting Notes

Feldmarshall offers intense aromas of sage and jasmine on the nose. The typical varietal aromas of apricot, citrus, green apple, and pomegranate are beautifully balanced with a rich minerality and a zesty acidity that lend this wine incredible finesse. Ex

Food Pairing

Extremely elegant and refined, Feldmarschall is a wonderful companion to all sorts of appetizers, from bacon-wrapped grilled shrimp to layered couscous dishes, roast veal or stuffed cornish game hens.
