Wieninger Bisamberg Alte Reben 2016

The 2016 Wiener Gemischter Satz Bisamberg opens pure and fresh on the nose, with lemon and earthy flavors. Silky textured, very elegant and super balanced, this is an intense and powerful but elegant and finessed field blend with richness and finesse. The acidity its very delicate here and the finish stimulatingly salty.

The Bisamberg (translated as “up to the hill”) is the 21st district’s primary vineyard and was the main vineyard area for Wieninger Heuriger. The Bisamberg climbs up to a height of 1,150ft and consists of light, sandy loess over limestone. The Gemischter Satz Bisamberg Alte Reben (old vine) is a 35-year-old vineyard that Fritz took over in 2011. This wine is a blend of white grapes taken from the Bisamberg vineyard.
