Cultural Tip
In German‑speaking countries ‘Hauswein’ usually means wine produced by the establishment itself, often served directly from the barrel. Saying something ‘kommt super an’ is colloquial; in a formal review you’d prefer ‘kommt sehr gut an’ or ‘erhält großes Lob’. Also note that the separable verb ‘ankommen’ always places the prefix at the end of the clause.
