Handpicked at various ripeness stages, this labour-intensive wine embodies a noble essence destined to endure through the ages. Don't wait too long to indulge, as its undeniable appeal and exceptional quality will make it a fleeting treasure.

Vintage 2015

A perfect growing season intensified the flavours for this truly noble Austrian grape variety. We handpicked the grapes in several stages, including a late harvest quality for an opulent, concentrated wine.

Hans' Winemaking Comments

Such purity in the fruit allowed for an extended cold maceration to extract the wonderful flavours.

After gentle pressing the must was transferred into an 500 lt French oak puncheon for a true natural wild yeast fermentation. The wine was then left on the lees with regular stirring to provide silkiness, complexity and depth and had time to mature over 15 months before we bottled this nectar.

This wine is not cold stabilized and is unfined with only light filtration to retain the beautiful aromas with a low sulphur addition. Natural sediments may show but do not impact on the high quality of this natural wine.

The Real Review – 95 points

“Possibly the most concentrated grüner veltliner I've tasted and also one of the most complex. Fermented in 500-litre puncheons and aged on the lees for 15 months. A rich, mouth-filling wine with toast, brioche, honey, white pepper and citrus flavours. Impressive.” Bob Campbell

This rich but dry ‘GV’ is reminiscent of the iconic “Smaragd” (English: Emerald), the best of the best and highest classification from the native Wachau.

A haunting wine, complex and concentrated with an amazingly fresh vibrancy. Flavours of rock melon and quince are complemented by honeyed aromas and spicy undertones. Hints of fresh ginger and a finely balanced mineral backbone make it a contender for ageing.
