This distinctive Grüner Veltliner initially needs plenty of air and preferably a large glass. Then it releases citrus aromas and buttered toast, and an abundance of yellow fruits. This is due to the late harvest of fully ripe grapes. It owes its profound minerality to the calcareous marl soils. A hint of tree resin can also be discerned. A magnificent wine with power and opulence, clarity and elegance. In its youth, it is dominated by oak, but full of promise for a golden, glorious (and delicious) future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe special feature of single vineyard wines is the nature of the vineyard with its microclimatic influences. In addition to the soil composition, the slope orientation and the altitude of the vineyard are crucial. Furthermore, the vine material exhibits very distinct attributes. Late selective hand harvesting and healthy grapes without botrytis are prerequisites for skin contact, no sulfur during the first months, and \"Sur Lie\" aging on the lees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGrüner Veltliner from old vines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"This striking Grüner Veltliner grows on the calcareous marl soils of the south-facing Hundsberg vineyard.
