The nose is aromatic with notes of ripe pear fruit, mango, smoky grapefruit and a hint of dried fruit. On the palate, this wine reveals a full-bodied, yet elegant structure, flavours of blossom honey, white apple and a lively acidic structure. It is harmoniously balanced and already very approachable.
Gemischter Satz means 'mixed set' as this wine is a field blend from a single vineyard, 'Bisamberg'. Considered among the finest of vineyards in the region, the 35-hectare site is planted with Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc), Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris) and Chardonnay. Certified organic and biodynamically-grown since 2012, the vines have an average age of 40 years old. The vineyard soils are composed of sandy loess covering limestone, which makes for fresh wines with a vibrant acidity.
Fritz Wieninger is considered a pioneer of the ‘New Vienna’ wine movement, combining a sense of modernity and progress with the traditions of the region and of his family, who have been making wine for over 100 years.
