More about this wine
Weingut Pittnauer
Gerhard and Brigitte PITTNAUER Winery is located in the town of Gols, Neusiedl am See, Burgenland, Austria. 18 hectares are cultivated with 90% red grapes. The soils are mostly sandy-clayey. In the last 6 years, 6 hectares have been transplanted, mainly with the St. Laurent. Uncompromising in quality, the Pittnauer family builds a loyal customer base - at home and abroad, and wins awards. Their Pinot Noir and St. Laurent, which is by no means the easiest to look at, enjoys the sensitive hand of Gerhard Pittnauer and is among the best Austrian wines - every year. Since 2006 the winery is certified as an organic producer. Gerhard says: “I love wines reduced to their essence - both in making and drinking.

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.
