✨ Technical Specifications
Cultivated on the deep loess and clay-rich soils of the south-eastern Weinviertel, this dry white wine reflects Lower Austria's cool continental climate influenced by warm Pannonian airflows. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the grape's primary aromatic profile, followed by brief maturation on fine lees to build mid-palate texture without introducing oak nuances. The resulting wine balances vivid herbaceous notes with bright citrus and stone fruit characteristics typical of Austrian Sauvignon Blanc.
