Description
A mineral and aromatic great Austrian wine
The estate
When Elizabeth Pichler-Krutzler and Erich Krutzler founded the Pichler-Krutzler estate in 2006, these two wine lovers set out to produce unique wines with great character, based on the principles of sustainable viticulture. The challenge has been met, as Pichler-Krutzler wines reflect both the great expertise of the winery and the exceptional terroir of the Wachau. A striking geology and climate and the estate owners’ passion and respect for their vines together result in great Austrian wines - a pure expression of nature.
The vineyard
This Riesling Ried Loibenberg is a Wachau wine that benefits from a soil dominated by quartz and mica, where vines aged between 37 and 52 years old are rooted.
Winemaking and ageing
The harvest took place at the end of October and only the best grapes were carefully selected by hand. Fermentation took place in stainless steel vats where the wine aged for 8 months on its lees until bottling in late summer.
Blend
Riesling (100%).
