Tasting Notes
Aroma
Discreet scents of green tea
and hemp; dried fruit aromas appear as the wine opens with air.
Appearance
Straw yellow hue with greenish reflections. Robust tears.
Palate
The palate reveals a
firm mineral grip, a compact body, fine extract sweetness and harmonious acidity. A
salty tone weaves through the notes of clean, clear fruit, lime jelly, clover blossoms and
dried peach slices to culminate in the long - salty! - finish.
Vinification
Harvest: selective harvest by hand in 20 kg crates at the end
of August to mid-September 2024
Maceration time: whole cluster pressing
Fermentation: with own yeasts in stainless steel tanks
Aging: in stainless steel tanks on full lees until the beginning
of December 2024 (2-3 months) and on fine lees until
botteling.
Vintage Notes
Sufficient rainfall during Winter and a warm start to Spring at the beginning of April spawned
an early budbreak. But a late frost in the second half of April resulted in considerable
damages to Kamptal vineyards. Early flowering and periods of high temperatures over the
Summer led to a particularly early harvest. Grape picking was briefly interrupted in mid-
September due to heavy rainfall and partial flooding. On 23 September, however, we were
able to conclude the 2024 harvest with satisfaction, thanks to the very promising grape
quality!
Food Matching
As a highly diverse food companion, this understated wine gently complements a wide variety of dishes.
