โจ Technical Specifications
Weingut Tement's Temento Green is a vibrant, youthful tribute to the classic, crisp white wines of Southern Styria. Crafted as an inviting introduction to the estate's biodynamic philosophy, this cuv e harmoniously blends Sauvignon Blanc and Welschriesling sourced from steep, high-altitude mountain vineyards. The name itself is a playful nod to both the family name and the lush, green, rolling hills of the Steiermark region, often referred to as the Austrian Tuscany. To preserve its energetic fruit profile and electric acidity, the grapes undergo spontaneous fermentation and are aged in stainless steel tanks on the fine lees. The result is a wine that captures the breezy, alpine freshness and flinty minerality characteristic of the region's unique soils.
๐พ About the Producer
Founded in 1959, Weingut Tement is a benchmark family-owned estate situated on the steep, dramatic hills of Sรผdsteiermark along the Austrian-Slovenian border. Propelled to international renown under Manfred Tement and now steered by sons Armin and Stefan Tement, the winery practices certified biodynamic viticulture across mineral-rich limestone and coralline limestone soils. Renowned for their precision, longevity, and profound terroir expression, the estate specializes in world-class Sauvignon Blanc and Morillon (Chardonnay), with iconic single-vineyard bottlings hailing from top cru sites such as Ried Zieregg and Ried Grassnitzberg.
