| Tasting notes | The slightly dusty 2015 Traminer NATURAL offers a clear, fresh and aromatic bouquet of lychee and green – tea flavours. Fresh and vital on the palate, this is a round and aromatic, fruity and rather semi-dry white. The Wine comes along with a nice and refreshing tannin structure. The wine was filled in the bottle without filtration, so it’s good to wist the bottle before opening. |

| Vineyard & Cellar | Since the vintage 2015, we start to ferment the white wines on the grapes and without any influences. We operate all our vineyards strictly biodynamic, after the anthroposophist Rudolf Steiner. The grapes are all handpicked and after a meticulous selection, we mash the grapes and filled in concrete eggs. The wine ferments on the skin with no addition of sulfur or other yeast products. After the fermentation, the concrete eggs just filled up. The wine is leaving on the skins for over 5 months, again with no sulfur addition. The NATURAL Traminer is comprised out of the grape varieties red and yellow Traminer. |
| Vintage | An average winter was followed by later sprouting and, unfortunately, a massive late frost towards the end of April. Particularly the locations at the Bisamberg and mainly the late-ripening varieties, which were already sprouting, such as Chardonnay or Zweigelt, were badly affected. The affected vineyards recovered well over the year, but the harvest was still small. The flowering in the middle of June by beautiful weather passed without any disturbances. And then followed a sunny summer with moderate temperatures and lots of rain. Especially the young plants enjoyed the frequent rain and grew as never before. The permanent humidity expedites diseases such as oidium and Peronospora. Only the team's tireless effort during the leaf work is due to the fact that we didn’t have to suffer any major damage. September was particularly nice, dry and warm. From the beginning of October, cold temperatures reach us suddenly. A perfect moment to start with the harvest in the single vineyards. 2016 is a vintage with a good concentration, playful fruit and intensive aroma. Exciting for white as well as red wines. |
| Soil | The grapes for the NATURAL Traminer 2016 come from a vineyard called Ried „Obere Schos“ located on the Vienna Nussberg. The soil is comprised of limestone and generous clay content with a very high content of chalk. |
