Vineyard Site
The monopoly site Ried Oberberg is characterised by sandstone-like Leithakalk and its cool, south-east exposed location. The 40-year-old vines give the grapes an unmistakable character. This results in a subtle-looking Neuburger full of puristic complexity and a taut finish.

Wine Description
Light golden yellow. Fine yellow fruit nuances, of mango and apricot, delicate herbal spice, a hint of fresh orange zest, multi-faceted bouquet. Medium-bodied, white apple fruit, finesse-rich structure, salty-citric finish, very light on its feet, sticks well, a complex and at the same time delicate food companion.
