As the name suggests the biodynamic grapes for this special blend origin from two types of premium sites around lake Neusiedl Some are dominated by limestone (Kalk) others by pebbles (Kiesel)
The grapes were handpicked in September and October. Fermentation took place on the skins and the wine matured 6 months in oak barrels on the lease. Bottled unfined and unfiltered
The nose is enveloping, with stone fruit (white nectarine) and citrus notes, the texture on the palette is both rich and crispy/crunchy with mineral backbone. A lovely wine to sit back with and a very approachable (and clean) wine, particularly commendable as it's produced without added sulfites. A fine choice with Thanksgiving fare, as the stone fruit character and density make a suitable pairing for a fall harvest meal (https://www.chambersstwines.com)
