More about this wine
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..
All wines of the same producerAbrostine
Abrostine is an ancient and almost extinct grape variety for red wine from Tuscany. Today, only one producer, Podere Santa Felicità, makes wine of this variety. It is called Sempremai Sorte, the name symbolizes the uncertainty of Abrustin's fate. Sempremai is made up of two Italian words - sempre ("always") and mai ("never"), while sorte means "destiny". The variety goes well with local Tuscan specialties - pasta alla buttera (pasta with foam with Italian sausage and tomatoes), roasted eggplant with garlic and aged Parmesan.
