About this Wine

Vines planted in 1906, and in the 1930s. Heavy clay situated on plateau, with lots of iron in the soil. This is up on the plateau, almost flat but facing slightly south, and has the highest clay content. Spontaneously fermented in an open wooden vat with 10 to 15 whole clusters. Then matured in old 500 liter barrels for two years. Very old vines, planted between 1908 and the 1930s, stand in this single vineyard. Strong clayey soil. Intense, dark fruity nose with a clear hint of graphite. – Moric

About Austrian Wine

Austria is a country with over 4000 years of wine making history, however, it unfortunately doesn't seem to enjoy the status and popularity that the high quality of it's wines deserve. Decades later, the country is still feeling the effects of a scandal in 1985 that destroyed its credibility at the time.

Grüner Veltliner is the most important wine made in Austria, distinguished by its lightly fruity, noticeable spice and characteristic white pepper notes. This variety comprises roughly a third of all plantings. In terms of volume, Riesling plays a much smaller role than in Germany, but is responsible for some of the most appreciated dry white wines made in the country.

In red varietals, Austrian native varieties are dominant and include the tart and peppery Zweigelt, spicy and dense Blaufränkisch and juicy Saint Laurent.

Critic reviews

James Suckling – “Intense ruby with narrow purple rim. Delicate, savoury black cherries, a touch of liquorice, tobacco nuances, a little nougat and blueberry. Taut, tightly meshed, peppery savouriness, racy structure, fresh and persistent, salty finish, a dash of Darjeeling tea on the back palate; still very young, needs time.”- Stuart Pigott, jamessuckling.com
