1000 Eimerberg Riesling Federspiel - Gritsch

In the glass, the 1000 Eimerberg Riesling Federspiel from the house of Gritsch shows a brilliantly shimmering light yellow color. Ideally poured into a white wine glass, this white wine from the Old World presents wonderfully expressive aromas of kumquat, orange, lemongrass and lime, rounded off by forest floor and sun-warmed rock.

This Austrian wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. As you would naturally expect from a wine, this Austrian naturally enraptures with the finest balance for all its dryness. Taste does not necessarily need sugar.

On the palate, the texture of this light-bodied white wine is wonderfully light and crisp. In the finish, this white wine from the wine-growing region of Lower Austria, which can be stored well, finally delights with good length. Once again, hints of pomelo and grapefruit show through.

Vinification of the Gritsch 1000 Eimerberg Riesling Federspiel

The elegant 1000 Eimerberg Riesling Federspiel from Austria is a single-varietal wine made from the Riesling grape variety. At the time of optimal ripeness, the grapes for the 1000 Eimerberg Riesling Federspiel are harvested exclusively by hand without the help of coarse and less selective full harvesters. After harvesting, the grapes are quickly taken to the press house. Here they are selected and carefully broken up. Fermentation follows in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.
