Natural wine has no uniform definition. It is a general term used to describe artisanal wine made using organically and/or biodynamically grown hand-picked grapes which are vinified with little or no intervention. Winemakers often rely on indigenous yeast to catalyse natural fermentation, avoiding the use of any chemicals, additives or sulphites.
The result is wine which is alive, energetic, vibrant and unexpected – a welcomed contrast to the industrial practices of the wine industry.

Tasting Notes
Great care is given to retain acidity during fermentation and during its year long maturation on the lees in neutral oak. What results is an easy-drinking, fresh orange wine with low acidity and delicious complexity! Notes of apple, apple cider, brioche and herb.

Slopes at the edge of the Parndorfer Platte, south-west orientation, sandy-loamy soil with inclusions of limestone.
