More about this wine

Wеingut Leth

Wеingut Leth

Franz and Barbara Leth founded Weingut Leth in the early 1960s, in the village of Fels am Wagram. The vineyards are located in the Wagram Valley along the Danube, facing south and on the typical soil type for the region - loess. Half of the total of 42 hectares are planted with Gruner Veltliner - a local variety that originates and is mainly grown in the area. The crop is harvested by hand and a lot of effort is put into the proper pruning and arrangement of the vines. Metal containers with temperature control for fermentation are used. Red wine is aged in French barrels for between 18 and 24 months. Weingut Leth has a rich wine list - from the iconic whites of the Grüner Veltliner, Roter Veltliner, Riesling and red from Zweigelt and Pinot Noir to a sparkling and sweet wine made with the noble mold botrytis. .

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.
