Description

Geyerhof Ried Steinleithn 1er Cru Grüner Veltliner

Geyerhof Ried Steinleithn 1er Cru is linear and tight with complexity galore and ripe fruity notes.

Fresh apricot nose with delicate candied orange, blossom honey and an expressive herbaceousness in the background. Perfect poise with a linear drive on the full-bodied palate. A vibrant acidic core supports its leesy texture, saline backbone and juicy flavours of orange citrus, quince, kiwi and honey. Extraordinary ageing potential.

100% Grüner Veltliner from Geyerhof's Ried Steinleithn vineyard. This very old Premier Cru-level vineyard, among the oldest of the region, is southwest facing and sits at an altitude of 280 metres. The soils is very poor, with only a thin layer of topsoil and bare rocks peeking through the root stock, earning the site its name (“Stein” means “rock” or “stone”). Its cool location and poor granulite soils create austere, elegant and linear wines offering an incredible cellaring potential. Late harvesting and low yields.

Manual harvesting of the fruit in small boxes at the beginning of November. Following this, the grapes go through whole bunch pressing. Slow fermentation in stainless steel tanks, ageing on full lees for 19 months. Vegan.

Ageing potential: Drink until 2030.
