Wine details

Information on location and soil

Situated on a rise of marine deposits 300 m above sea level this exposed soil decomposed over the ages to create sandy clay.

Information on maturation

This wine is usually fermented in used (2-3 years old) 300 liter Austrian oak barrels. For further maturation, it is racked into 2500 l casks (also 2-3 years old).

Smell

Lively and stimulating, bright flavours of yellow fruitlike pears and peaches.

Taste

Very good grip, but elegant and noble as well, powerful and at the same time tightly structured, tobacco notes only in the finish, immensely expressive and long lasting, great aging potential.

Food recommendation

Matches ideally with a number of exotic dishes like curry and stir-fried dishes; also typical Austrian dishes like Wiener Schnitzel, and roasted goose, duck, or pork; goose or duck liver with vegetables and fruit; calf’s liver with apples and onions.
