100% Riesling. Bone dry, this lovely and rare bottle features vibrant aromas of ripe peach, apricot, and citrus zest complemented by subtle herbal notes and a distinctive stony minerality. Medium-bodied and focused, its palate delivers juicy stone fruit flavors balanced by brisk acidity and a mineral-driven finish. The elegant, precise texture reflects the unique terroir of the Heiligenstein vineyard. Ideal with delicate seafood like grilled scallops or sushi, as well as light Thai or Vietnamese dishes, this wine is approachable now and will develop further complexity over the next 5–8 years.

Details

From our Importer: The Kamptal village of Zöbing, with some 700 inhabitants, has been home to our estate for more than sixty years, located right at the point where the river Kamp leaves the narrow valley of the Waldviertel (coming out of the woods, so to speak), and flows south. The nearby Heiligenstein and Kogelberg certainly set a romantic scene, but more importantly provide the soils and elevation ideally suited to cultivation of the vine. During the night, north winds cool the vineyards, while during the day we couldn’t ask for finer sunshine to warm our hillsides and terraces. These aspects, coupled with the calming effect of the nearby river, impart a generosity to our fruit that is matched only by the evenness with which it ripens. And the area itself is simply ideal for Grüner Veltliner and Riesling, our specialties.

The estate has grown large enough to produce a respectable quantity of both but remains small enough that we are able to keep a firm hand and a watchful eye on all that transpires in the vineyard, the cellar, and in-between. Ever since Johann Brandl Sr. founded our family estate, two generations have collaborated here in the pursuit of excellence. The older generation – Elisabeth and Johann – provide experience and tradition, while Petra and Günther offer new ideas, energy and a fresh outlook. We live on the estate and live with the estate; the care we take with it – and with nature in general – provides the foundation for the work we do and the wines we put in the bottle.
