Wine Description

A whole bouquet of white and yellow flowers (elder-acacia) rises immediately to the nose, followed by some mineral and yeasty tones, dry and surprisingly fresh on the palate, pure, fragrant and again striking with its light fruit tones like fresh vineyard peaches, also a fresh acidity backbone that highlights some spice and minerals, elegant, slender yet complete Riesling version, perfect for the summerly terraces.

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.
