Gelber Muskateller

(Edition: Pure Classic)

The Gelber Muskateller Pure Classic byHeinrich is a classically finished white wine that will captivate you with its multi-layered aroma and fresh character, beautifully expressing the distinctive features of this grape variety. The grapes for this wine come from the volcanic region in Austria, where they thrive on naturally volcanic soils, reflecting a unique terroir.

On the nose, Gelber Muskateller presents intense aromas of ripe yellow fruits such as peach, apricot and citrus. These fruity notes are accompanied by a distinct floral component reminiscent of rose petals and fresh herbs. On the palate, the wine is lively and tangy with a harmonious acid structure. The fruity aromas continue and are accompanied by a subtle spiciness that gives the wine a certain complexity. The finish is long and refreshing.

The Gelber Muskateller from the Volcanic region, which is classically aged by the winery byHeinrich, is characterized by its special aroma and expressive character. The winemaking of this vintage is carried out according to traditional methods in order to fully exploit the unique potential of the grapes.

The winemaking process begins with the careful harvesting of the Gelber Muskateller grapes. These are hand-picked to ensure that only the best and fully ripe grapes are selected. This careful selection is crucial to ensure the high quality of the wine.

After fermentation, the wine is tested for its quality and balance.
