Riesling Weißer Stein

The „Weiße Stein“ (white stone) used to be a signal rock for boats the Danube river, which could be seen from far away and served as an orientation point.

The vines for this Riesling love the sun-drenched, rocky terraces below the „Weiße Stein“. A bright coloured, light-footed and playful Riesling is the result.

Tasting Notes:
Intense fruity flavours of apricot and peach on the pallet, combined with mineral hints and lively spice. Effortlessly balanced. Animating and refreshing.

Suggested Food Pairings:
Fresh- and salt-water fish like grilled Salmon, Trout, Bass, Shrimp and Seafood. Vegetable dishes, Casseroles, roasted poultry or BBQ pork. Spicy Asian or Mexican cuisine. Soft and semi-hard cheeses.

Ideal serving temperature: 10-12° C

Riesling Ried GEBLING

This site offers exactly the conditions which Riesling needs to flourish. The soil is weathered conglomerate rock, which warms quickly and is rich in minerals, with only a thin top layer of loess.

Tasting Notes:
Fruity nose. Intense aromas of peach, quince and nice minerality that complement the firm structure and smooth texture. With expressive peach and apricot flavors on the palate, balanced by a racy acidity. Elegant and refreshing.  Clear and focused all the way to the lengthy finish.

Neuburger Ried REISENTHAL

Neuburger is the Moses of Austrian varieties. According to legend it was fished out of the Danube in the 1860s and planted in the Wachau.

The poor and dry loess soil in Reisenthal offers the best conditions for this frugal varietal which can flourish even when there is only very little supply of water.

Tasting Notes:
Bright straw-yellow colour, destinct nutty aromas in the nose and on the palate

Suggested Food Pairings:
Truffles, Cheese platter, Asian food, Mushrooms, Roasted Turkey, Beef, Duck, Goose, Game

Gelber Muskateller GEDERSDORFER LÖSSTERASSEN

Cultivated in our growing area since the 15th century, Muskateller (a gold-skinned varation of the French Muscat blanc) is still one of the most consistent grape varieties in Austria. Late-ripening, with a preference for sandy or gravely soils, Austrian Muskatellers are vinified as dry, light and aromatic wines.

Tasting Notes:
Brilliant, straw-green hue. Fruity nose of elderberry flowers, exotic guava and classic Muscat tone. A crisp entry leads to a racy, vibrant, medium-bodied palate with a characteristic aroma of roses and nutmeg. Clean and refreshing. Dry finish with a minimal hint of sweetness offset by piercing acidity.

Suggested Food Pairings:
Perfect as an aperitif or with shellfish. Also pairs well with a variety of spicy asian dishes.

Serving temperature: 10-12° C

On these 3 steep terraces are our oldest vines, about 60 years of age. Just a few loose clusters of grapes are nourished generously by a widely-spread and deep root system.

Tasting Notes:
In the nose a boost of yellow fruits and green apples. On the palate it is multylayered and intense. A synergy between green fruits and tropical fruits and a good balance of richness and elegance.

Grüner Veltliner Ried MOOSBURGERIN
Kremstal DAC

Gedersdorfer Moosburgerin
The soil here is conglomerate rock with a 2 meter layer of Loess on top. Moosburgerin is the oldest documented site in Gedersdorf (first time mentioned in 890 A.C.). Monks of a nearby cloister planted the first vines there. The combination of warm days and cool nights ripens the grapes here more slowly, which results in wines that are fruity and spicy, refined and elegant, although higher in Brix.

Tasting Notes:
A fresh zippy style of Grüner Veltliner, with an intense apple and white currant note on the nose and palate, topped with hints of lemon pepper. Fruity spice leads the palate, which is clean and zesty. Acidity is well-balanced. Overall the wine is very refreshing and juicy, with racy minerality and finesse. It has enough weight and individual character to pair beautifully with many fish and white meat dishes. Its liveliness also makes it a great Aperitif wine.

Suggested Food Pairings:
Appetizers, Finger-food, Ham, Prosciutto, Asparagus, Salads, Chicken, Fish, Veal, Vegetable dishes, Seafood, Shellfish, Cold Cuts, Asian Cuisine. Food wine par excellence.

Serving temperature: 8-10° C
