The curious combination of depth and lightness. Determined, focussed and with righteous courage as the soul of its roots.

Chardonnay thrives on the eastern limestone and slate slopes of the Leitha Range. The primary lots were harvested from the vineyards Spiegel, Kirchberg and Alter Berg in Winden and the Fügler in Jois. Some grape material also comes from the Edelgraben and the Zwergsbreiten in Breitenbrunn.

Bottled with conscientous handcraft and great care throughout the entire life cycle. Biodynamic cultivation of the vineyards. Handpicked beginning of September and left for some hours on the skins and stems.

Spontaneous fermentation and malolactic fermentation. Matured for 7 months on its lees in large oak casks.
