A new grape for me. I picked up this wine on my last trip to Holland after a chat with a very helpful lady at Marius in Wassenaar. Bukettraube is described as being similar to Muscat, and this seems true, as this has the stone fruit flavours and floral boquet. Medium-dry, with a decent level of acid, this was a great match for our balti following a delicious glass as an aperitif. We loved it.
