Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Neuburger from the Wachau, Austria. From 14-year-old vines in the Im Weingebirge and the Silberbichl Bischofpoint. Grown on loess soil on Danube gravel
Taste Profile: Comparable to Silvaner, the variety also has similar gastronomic qualities to Veltliner. A lighter style of a typical Neuburger, it has fine creaminess, some pear and quince push through, delicate nutty aromas, hay and beeswax. Smooth and spicy. Full of tension and with a backbone; elegance paired with finesse
High ageing potential
Winemaking Process: Selective manual harvest. The wine is fermented on natural yeast without the addition of sugars, enzymes or flavor enhancers. Matured for 6 months in old oak barrels
From the limestone character of Sancerre to the green, herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc of Marlborough, this style group often shows off cut grass and wet stone. Often associated with coastal regions or limestone based terroir, these wines are characterised with crisp acidity, mineraiity, citrus tones, with a hint of grassiness
Aging a wine on lees (sur lie) significantly affects its taste, texture, and overall complexity. Lees refer to the dead yeast cells and other solid particles that settle at the bottom of a fermentation vessel after primary fermentation.
It helps with flavour development, often adding bready, nutty, toasty, or creamy flavors. It also helps to balance acidity & creates a more rounded, creamy, and silky mouthfeel.
WINES FROM UNIQUE REGIONS & BOUTIQUE WINERIES
Founded in 2019, we were bored with the typical Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Amarone & Moscato offerings at most bars & restaurants, and were inspired to dive deeper into the wine world!
