Solaris – Groot Maarslag

Character and aromas:

The Solaris has a bright, straw-yellow color and offers a pleasant aroma of fresh citrus fruits, such as lime and grapefruit, with a subtle hint of green apple. When tasting, the wine immediately comes across as pleasantly fresh, but with a beautiful, soft aftertaste that brings a hint of flowers and a little honey. It is a light, lively wine that seems to dance in your mouth. The texture is soft, with a nice balance between freshness and a round, almost creamy aftertaste.

Goes well with

This Solaris is ideal as an aperitif, but also perfectly combines with light dishes. Think of a fresh salad with goat cheese, a ceviche with citrus or a mild goat cheese. Also good with grilled fish or a light pasta with lemon and olive oil. Because the wine is so versatile, it can also go well with a cozy drink, for example with some marinated olives or tapenade. In short, a wine that is easily adaptable, but always with a fresh touch.
