Winemaker Notes:
"Tucked back about 400 meters off the Danube and looking down to Weißenkirchen, Ried Weitenberg is a warm site, at least for the Wachau. It faces South/Southwest and receives shaded mornings and strong evening sun. An interestering quality of this vineyard is the ancient genetic material planted in the early 1950s with masale selections from the Wachau, which makes each vine different from the next. These unique vines offer a different taste than the commonly found herbaceous and peppery notes in Grüner Veltliner clones, but are stronger in the range of melon, tropical and yellow fruits. The yields are very low in some years due to the vine age and the flowering of these ancient selections is very poor and ends up with no botrytis at all (favorable to Peter’s wine style) and low yields but higher alcohol."
Alcohol: 13.5%
