The Revolution White from Johannes Zillinger is an experimental mix of 3 grape varieties: Chardonnay (50%), Riesling (25%) and Sämling (25%). The story doesn’t end here though. The Chardonnay was fermented in amphora, The Sämling in barrels and the Riesling was made with a unique solera system (different vintages put together year after year). Slightly fizzy at first, it has a citrusy, refreshing and balanced style. Notes of grapefruit, lime, clementine and green apple.
