Art. # 4516

Just as there is no summer without Sauvignon, there is no summer without Riesling!  

Here's a work of art from Kremstal, Austria, a true classic from the Weinzierlberg, Sandgrube and Gebling vineyards (among others).  

Incidentally, the Gebling site was first mentioned as an excellent terroir for growing vines back in 1284.  

Gebling wines are mineral and highly expressive. Wines from the Weinzierlberg, on the other hand, are always very well structured thanks to the treasure hidden in the soil - the loess. Imagine now a combination of both and a pinch of white pepper. There, you're on the right track...

Weingut Wess

Weingut Wess

With more than 2,200 hectares of vineyards, the Kremstal region includes the vineyards around the historic town of Krems, backing onto the neighbouring and famous Wachau region to the west, the Krems valley with its dense loess deposits to the east, and the small wine villages south of the Danube clustered around the imposing Göttweig Abbey. In 2003, Rainer Wess fulfilled his dream of producing quality wines bearing his signature and his name on the label, as they epitomise the typicality and regional character of the Kremsstal. The focus of the work falls on local specialities - the spicy Grüner Veltliner and the elegant and mineral-driven Riesling, which Rainer and now the next generation, daughter Christina, are turning into both fresh, aromatic and light wines but also serious and complex ones with long ageing potential..

Долна Австрия е най -големият австрийски лозарски регион за Квалитетсвайн. Под неговото име са събрани изобилие от винени култури, вариращи от лозови стилове на местни сортове, до отличителни интерпретации на международни типове. Осемте специфични лозарски региона, разположени в региона - със звучни имена като Вахау на запад и Карнутум на изток - могат да бъдат грубо разделени на три климатични зони: Вейнвиертел на север, река Дунав със страничните си долини (Трайсен, Камп и Кремс) на запад от Виена и Панонски Долна Австрия на югоизток. Четвъртичните отлагания, особено дребнозърнестият льос и едрозърнестите терасови чакъли, така благоприятстващи лозарството, са разпространени във всички основни единици. Лесът осигурява основния материал за дълбоката почва в около половината от лозята, варовито-доломитни в различни пропорции. Неогеновите находища в басейна на Моласе и Виенския басейн поддържат около една трета от лозята. Освен местно формирани мергели и пясъчници, конгломерати и варовик Лейта, тук е доминираща рохкава скала. Съставите варират от глинеста тиня върху пясък до чакъл и камъчета във всички възможни смеси и могат също да се различават значително по отношение на съдържанието на карбонати. Малко над 6%т от лозята растат в почви, лежащи върху кристалната скала на Бохемския масив. Преобладават киселинният гнайс, гранит и гранит. Особено в последователността на често схистичните парагнейси, човек се сблъсква с често редуване между амфиболитни легла и по -малко разпространени слоеве мрамор.

Riesling

Riesling

Riesling is an aromatic white grape variety that produces wine in the entire range - from botrytized sweet (one of the best in the world) to dry and semi-dry varieties, with captivating aromas of citrus and stone fruits, as well as the typical petroleum aroma, which in certain terroir appearances can dominate sensitively. Riesling's homeland can be said to be the valleys of the Rhine and Moselle rivers in Germany - the variety likes cooler weather. Naturally, here are the main wine regions of the country (Moselle, Rheinhessen, Rheingau, Pfalz). The vineyards are located on the steep hills, making mechanisation difficult, so here the viticultural activities are mainly manual. The wines from these regions are fresh and with a pronounced acidity. However, Riesling in Germany is by no means the main variety, in fact another is the wine region in which this variety is most common - and this is Alsace in France (or Elsaß in German). Unlike the German Riesling, the French Riesling is more saturated and lush due to the specifics of the microclimate there - the Vosges Mountains provide protection from northern winds and cold, and the sun is more generous in this southern region. Outside of these countries, perhaps Austria also presents itself with an interesting reading of this often called king of white varieties, and some countries of the New World successful experiment with it as well.
