Wine Description

Fully ripened and simultaneously fine-boned, revealing the usual fruit kaleidoscope featuring lime and vineyard peach over nuances of lemon balm and menthol. Distinctive and charming, focused and highly elegant with bracing balance. A touch of pineapple and papaya join countless other facets on the palate. Exemplary in its fine-boned finesse and racy style – a reserve from many, many years of enjoyment.

Winery

Weingut Bründlmayer is situated in Langenlois, some 70km north-west of Vienna, upstream along the Danube in the Lower Austrian Kamp Valley. The wooded hills of the Waldviertel protect the vineyards from the cold north-westerly winds. During the day, the sun warms the stony terraces, while at night the fresh, fragrant forest air drifts through the Kamp Valley into the Langenloiser Arena.
