Terrassen Spitzer Graben is relatively young.
Produced for the irst time in 2019. There were increasingly hours of sunshine and so they pressed this wine for the first time from the coolest locations in the Spitzer Graben. The result is an independant, very precise and yet multi-layered Veltliner.

Vinification
Wine-making is a constant and continuous reaction to the requirements of the grapes. We cultivate our own ideas in this respect - a little skin contact, warm fermentation temperatures, yeast contact - follow each step meticulously, yet try to influence the development as little as possible or intervene unmotivated. Most of the spring games and emeralds are stored in stainless steel tanks to reproduce the finesse and filigree of the wines as precisely as possible. Although we have clear ideas about the style of our wines, we try to keep our eyes on the bigger picture, free from dogma. We taste, experiment and listen: Other winegrowers but also our customers - because this is the only way to develop.
