Wine Description
Aristocratic aromas, dried fruit with mandarin, orange peel and quince. Rich, full of fruit, the hint of residual sugar is perfectly balanced by piquant acidity. Brilliant weight, some nutty and creamy spice lingers on the palate, comforting consistency. Excellent ageing potential.
Winery
Being a wine grower is both our vocation and our commitment. It is our calling to produce wines with character and sustainably; it is our commitment to future generations. The distinctive character is shaped by several factors and methods, and these are responsible for the uniqueness of our wines. This is significantly influenced by the wine-growing region of Wagram and its grape varieties; yet specifically characterised by biodynamics.
