Tschida "Himmel auf Erden" Weiss - 2024

If you see bottles of any of Christian Tschida’s wine in one of our bins, grab it. It may not be there tomorrow. Himmel auf Erden (Heaven on Earth) features an etching of Tschida’s late artist friend Alfred Hrdlicka on the bottle’s label. You'll see musicians and an audience reveling and embracing the Bacchanalian spirit. You could say that Tschida’s wine embodies the spirit of otherworldly enjoyment. Himmel auf Erden, the wine, evokes a myriad of sensations that seem part of the immaterial world. The aromas are a melange of hay, nuts, spice, cocoa butter, and citrus. There is also a bracing acidity to surprise the palate tucked just beneath its rich texture. Flashes of ginger, apples, and citrus flavors continue to delight the palate. It’s a wonderful white to pair with winter squash dishes, roast chicken, and Swiss Alpine cheeses.
