Tschida Non Tradition Weiss 2022 750ml

The first vintage to combine not one, but two Veltliner vineyards, in order to express the complex limestone of an old vineyard with the schist soil of another. “The temptation to bottle such wines separately was huge, but combined the two seem to expand their aromatic dimension many times over, adding layers and length on the palate. The calculation clearly goes 1+1=3,” says Christian. 

Age of Vines: 40 years

Grapes: Grüner Veltliner

Vineyard: Two Veltliner vineyards

Making of: Grapes are hand-harvested and crushed by foot. The juices ferment separately in large barrels with indigenous yeast and no racking. Some barrels remain in contact with the skins for a short amount of time. They spend 1 year aging in barrel and are combined before being bottled without fining, filtering, or any addition of sulfur.
