Vineyard: Steinnelke
The thousand-year-old vineyard meadow to the west of Rust was formed about 16 million years ago as a coral reef of the primordial sea. A shell limestone sediment and crystalline gneiss give the wine its very mineral, powerful and unique character. The sunny south-eastern slopes of the hill country around Rust are among the most traditional and best vineyards in Austria.
Vinification
Natural fermentation in the stainless-steel tank
Food Pairing
Chardonnay wines go well with veal dishes and fish, also a cheese buffet with strong cheeses and fresh baguette.
