Description

ABOUT THE PRODUCER:
Located in the prestigious Kamptal-Donau wine region of Austria, Weingut Rabl is a byword for wines of the highest quality. The winery enjoys a vine growing tradition dating back to 1750. Now under the watchful eye of Rudolf Rabl Jr. the estate comprises 100 hectares of the best hillside vineyards in and around Langenlois. The Kamp Valley has a unique microclimate and rich soils with an abundance of minerals. Rudolf Rabl combines these natural resources with sustainable practices in the vineyard-which are certified by Sustainable Austria – and uses modern winemaking techniques to produce a multi award-winning range of complex wines. Weingut Rabl was awarded the IWSC Trophy for White Wine Maker of the Year in 2019 and 2021.

ABOUT THE VINEYARD:
Following the philosophy that only the best grapes produce high quality wines, meticulous care and attention is paid to the vines. A foliage treatment is used to ensure a more balanced aeration and exposure to the sun, resulting in healthy grapes. The vineyards at Weingut Rabl are either the best primary rock soil vineyards in and around Langenlois or based on rich loess soils that are of the same high calibre.

THE WINEMAKING PROCESS:
The grapes were harvested once they had reached the desired levels of maturity. Fermentation took place with selected yeasts in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks in order to preserve the freshness and integrity of the Grüner Veltliner characteristics.

OUR TASTING NOTES:
A refreshing and zesty wine with intense notes of vibrant grapefruit with tropical fruit notes on the palate through to a mineral, crisp finish with classic hints of white pepper.

GRAPE:
Grüner Veltliner 100%.
