This became the Nikolaihof “manor” wine after a natural fermentation stop. Like all great things, it's a "by coincidence"!
Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Riesling from the Wachau, Austria. The vines are grown on loess soils on Danube gravel, from the Vom Stein vineyards of Weingut Nikolaihof
Taste Profile: Clear and intense on the nose, with aromas of minerality, forest floor, sweet peach, white flowers and a hint of dry bread and honey with a slightly sweet aftertaste.
Winemaking Process: Harvested manually. This is part of the ‘Vom Stein’ Riesling Federspiel, which was used as ‘gutswein’ after the natural cessation of fermentation. 6 months maturation and bottled. Spontaneous fermentation on large foulers (2000 to 12000 liters)
