Südsteiermark DACSauvignon Blanc Turmalin Ried Kreuzberg 2018

The Sauvignon Blanc convinces with balance and finesse. The nose displays delicate notes of elderflower, gooseberry, apple and white currant. A very clear, fresh, vibrant and, at the same time, ripe wine. Very balanced, with a fine acidity and an extremely complex structure. A hint of roughness and coolness reminiscent of mint and fennel paired with an almost peppery spice. You literally have its terroir in your nose. Very round and polished on the palate – a complete work of art.

SIGNUM BLANC grows on rocky soil rich in tourmaline, a unique terroir on the Kreuzberg in southern Styria, on steep slopes. The soil contains black tourmaline, a precious gemstone.

Immediately after the harvest, the grapes from the respective harvest batches are gently pressed and fermented separately in steel tanks and wooden barrels. From this, Thomas and Toni Rothschädl develop their wine with a lot of love, sensitivity and consideration for sustainability, which reflects the ingenious terroir in the glass: The tourmaline-rich rocky soil and the precious old vines that have enjoyed the Mediterranean-Illyrian climate for months.
