New in our portfolio! Full bodied, premium Riesling from old vineyards in and around Strass in Kamptal. Intense and aromatic, ripe peach and apricot, residual sugar fantastically balanced by its fresh acidity.
Goes well with Asian dishes, seafood and even BBQ
ABV: 12.5%
The Weixelbaum family has been making wine in Strass im Strassertal, Kamptal, for three generations — 30 hectares of vineyards and 130,000 vines, with a focus on whites complemented by a small selection of reds. Their oldest bottles in the family wine library date back to 1967, including Grüner Veltliners from 1983 and 1986 made by Heinz Weixelbaum's father Heinrich.
They farm holistically and organically. Chamomile, mustard, fennel, phacelia and clover are sown each year to feed bees and other insects, and "Weixelbaum Insect Hotel Group" shelters sit in every vineyard. Manual labour in the vines and meticulous, gravity-driven processing in the cellar — grapes free-falling into barrel for settling — are central to how the wine is made. Wood, the right barrel, and time: these are the cellar's most important tools.
Looking forward, the next generation is already in the conversation: children Theresa and Pauli sit on the family council, discussing which grape varieties to plant. Loyal customers stretch from Vienna to Los Angeles, drawn by hospitality, good humour, and a down-to-earth love of wine.
