For centuries, the Weinviertel, in lower Austria, has been the region that delivers its wines to Vienna as it borders the city. Due to the rolling hills of the region the vines are grown on the tops of the hills to have better aeration and better drained soil.

Crushing, followed by a 4 hour cold soak to extract color and flavor. Temperature controlled fermentation in steel tanks via a very reductive style by using inert gases to avoid flavor losses. Fermentation takes place at very low temperatures 66°F to achieve the clearest aroma profile.
