TROCKENBEERENAUSLESE is one of the estate’s nobly sweet wine specialities. The wine is dense and concentrated with an agreeable interplay of sweetness and acidity leading into a smoky-spicy finish relying on Grüner Veltliner aromas.
We can produce noble sweet wines (Auslese, BA and TBA) in exceptional years only, depending on the right weather for Botrytis cinerea. This noble rot will punctuate the grape skins, thus reducing the water content in the grapes and concentrating the aromas. We carefully select the grapes and berries infected with Botrytis and seperate these into the different sweet wine levels in a second step. After carefully pressing the grapes in our basket press the wine is matured for 8 months in 300-liter oak barrels.
