Weszeli Terrafactum Steingarten Grüner Veltliner 2016
Kamptal, Niederösterreich, Weinland Österreich, AustriaThe Käferberg vineyard is a southeast facing clay/marl slope at 300m in the Kamptal. After eight hours of skin contact, this moved to old wooden barrels for native fermentation, a short time on lees before bottling, and a 13 month bottle rest prior to release. There's a heady puff of reduction upon opening that needs time air time to dissipate. In its wake, expect yellow fruits, chamomile, sour lemon, pear, honeydew, hedge, and kisses of gentle white honey. Bracing upright structure to a stony, bitter lemon finish. On the severe side, this tight grüner welcomes foods.Tasted: 04 March 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $25.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
