DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Medium yellow-green, silver reflexes . Delicate nuances of Golden Delicious apple, pleasant notes of tropical fruit, delicate meadow herbs, tobacco, mineral notes. Substantial, powerful, fine extract sweetness, a somewhat more opulent, masculine style, sticks very well, dark spicy reverberation, a juicy food companion with great development potential.
These may well be the oldest vines in existence in the Wachau, planted in 1938. The Bodensteins acquired this vineyard and released their first wine from here in 2005. Single stalk trained, “Stockkultur”, in the old style, because these terraces are uneven and would never allow for a wire trained system anyway. Maintaining and repairing these old stake trained vines is a labor of love. In this wine are the complex aromas and deep savory characteristics only found in vines decades old planted to these infertile soils.
