Sauvignon blanc Ried Lubekogel Südsteiermark DAC 2021
In the glass, the wine presents a brilliant golden-yellow color with high viscosity. On the nose, a complex bouquet unfolds, featuring fresh lemongrass, spicy-sweet bell peppers, a hint of gooseberry, and subtle notes of vanilla. On the palate, it displays an inviting texture, supported by fruit and spice. The delicate acidity lends structure and tension, while the wine feels full-bodied and perfectly balanced. The finish features elegant notes of black currant and vanilla that linger long and harmoniously. An expressive, multi-layered wine with depth and elegance

Year:
A dry, almost snowless winter laid the groundwork, but budbreak was delayed and did not begin until early May. Before flowering, above-average temperatures brought intense heat, followed by ideal dry conditions that led to the vines blooming in late May. This was followed by above-average rainfall in June. Hot and dry weeks characterized July and August, which meant that the harvest took place somewhat later than usual—with the main harvest beginning in early October.
Vinification:
Aged on the fine lees for 15 months in large wooden barrels
and matured
