Mon Blanc 2021

A melange of Riesling -, Grüner Veltliner -, Pinot Blanc -, Gelber Muskateller and Donauriesling grapes rooted in high altitude vineyards at up to 400 meters above sea level in gneiss and mica schist.

2021 was a particularly varied year in the vineyards and once again demanded a lot of experience, sensitivity and intuition. After a cool spring and late flowering, the summer was very varied: sometimes sunny, sometimes rainy, but without heat waves. As changeable as the year had been until then, the weather remained stable during the harvest. The exceptionally beautiful and consistent autumn weather gave us the opportunity to harvest our parcels with absolute precision. The condition of the grapes was just perfect and the ripeness, acidity and aroma indicate an exceptional vintage that will be reflected in vibrant terroir-driven wines with longevity.

Under the title "Entdeckungen vom Weingut / Discoveries from the Winery", special project wines have been vinified and bottled in small quantities at the Jurtschitsch Winery every year since 2007. This wine is naturally cloudy, unfiltered and unfined. Before opening, gently turn the bottle upside down and back again.

The Jurtschitsch winery, situated in Langenlois, is one of the most prestigious wineries in Austria which impeccably displays Austrian wine culture at its best. Alwin and Stefanie Jurtschitsch having been leading the family estate for some time now and have managed to reinterpret premium wine in their own way. For the two of them this means vinifying authentic, complex and terroir-specific wines with cool, elegant stylistics - in other words, permitting the different appellations in Langenlois to express themselves individually.
