von der Vogelwaide Weinland Gruner Veltliner Tandaradai 2021 750ml

Organic. 100% Grüner Veltliner. One of the two top wines at the Vogelwaide domaine, this comes from two single-vineyard parcels of intense steepness and difficulty to work, called Vogelleithen and Johannserberg. Both vineyards have very old vines on poor soils and old terraces. Whole-cluster pressed into 100% neutral French 228L. No maceration is done (to prevent extraction of too much potassium). Spontaneous fermentation, unfined/unfiltered, full malolactic. Aged in the same neutral French 228L for 12 months on full lees. This wine is deeply golden, with clear tones of yellow apple and apricot .The word 'Tandaradai' is a medieval Austro-German word: onomatopoeia for the sound of the flapping of a bird’s wings. Only around 500 bottles of this wine are produced each year.
