The grapes of this wine are growing in the flat area surrounding the town of Dürnstein alongside the river Danube on well drained sandy sediments and gravel. Vinified in stainless steel and bottled in later March.Subsequently, the wine was matured for some time on its fine lees, which again emphasised the complexity.
Notes on the producer
Elisabeth Pichler-Krutzler and Erich Krutzler, both viticulture-raised in their families – she in the Wachau and he in South-Burgenland. They so to say have been born into wine tradition. A winery, started in 2007, was the logical and natural consequence of their marriage. In the village of Oberloiben nearby quaint town of Dürnstein annually a variety of different wines on about 13 ha area of vines are crafted using the varieties Grüner Veltliner and Riesling on famous sites like Klostersatz, Supperin, Loibenberg, Kellerberg or Pfaffenberg. Nestled in the unique landscape of the river Danube these sites, cultivated sustainably with respect for nature, yield wines reflecting each sublime terroir.
"In the cellar our wines are not made or even made up, but we permit them to arise. As a result our wines are distinctive with soul and strong character showing authentically what nature says. They are not following the crowd."
