Domäne Wachau Grüner Veltliner ‘Kellerberg’ Smaragd 1996
|
NOTES
The Domäne Wachau is situated in the heart of the Wachau Valley, one of Europe’s oldest cultural landscapes. The Wachau is a gorge of only 33 km in length. Steep slopes terraced with dry stone walls, fortressed mountains, vineyards, orchards, rare flora and fauna as well as a rich cultural tradition make this a unique area in all of Europe. For this reason, the Wachau has also been named a World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO.
Wine has been cultivated in the Wachau for centuries. Primary rock soil, an exceptional climate and terraces overlooking the Danube River have great influence on the tremendous quality of the Wachau wines. The preservation of this unique cultural landscape is an integral part of the Domäne Wachau mission as is making a visit to our headquarters in the historic baroque Cellar Castle a memorable highlight for guests of the Wachau.
TASTING NOTES
The steep house mountain “Kellerberg” of the Freie Weingärtner Wachau is a hill that rises directly behind the baroque cellar castle pictured on the label. The wine has a strong straw yellow color with medium golden tinges. On the nose, open and inviting with intense and lively aromas of hay, yellow apple, tropical fruits and some spiciness. On the palate full-bodied with good and round structure. A wine with finesse and a long finish. Kellerberg is traditionally a powerful wines, due to the warm panonnian micro-climate and fine minerality.
