Grüner Veltliner Seeberg 2017

This special wine comes from one of our best sites: the Langenloiser Seeberg, a very stony soil with little clay in 350m above sea level. In our vineyards on the Seeberg we work very carefully during the whole year. We take away the surplus clusters in the summer and aim for a good relation between grapes and leaves. This is important for a good assimilation and maturity. The harvest is always very late, usually not before November. The Seeberg Veltliner 17 consists 100% of Gruener Veltliner grapes. After some hours maceration and spontaneous fermentation the wine was racked in a big old oak barrel to mature for 1 year before it was bottled in September 2018. We recommend to store it for 1-2 years before you open the first bottle. It is also good to decant the wine before drinking. Usually, the Gruener Veltliner Seeberg develops its full character when it gets some air. The Seeberg Veltliner 17 is a good compagnion to hot and spicy food.
