Age of the vines:

Varieties:
Chardonnay
Terroir:
The grapes for this wine come from elevated, flat vineyards on the Parndorf Plain. The characteristic soils there are cooler, limy, deep gravel soils that give very ripe and complex wines but still enable the wines to develop fine, prominent fruit aromas.
Harvest:
Yield reduction to 1 bunch per shoot, carefully selected and harvested by hand on 24 September.
Vinification:
Selection of the grapes, gentle processing, 7 days’ cold maceration, controlled mash fermentation and malolactic fermentation in barrique barrels, bâtonnage, matured in barrique barrels for 16 months, bottled on 8 February 2019
Tasting notes:
Powerful, shiny straw yellow colour; fragrance of vineyard peach and white pepper on the nose; very fine minerality with notes of vanilla and brioche; the fruitiness continues on the palate with intense aromas of pineapple and mango with underlying, very discreet clove spiciness; very sappy and very long-lasting on the finish with a very fine note of liquorice and a good texture (8 February 2019)
