Lemon-yellow in colour, this field blend opens with a wonderful aromatic bouquet of ripe white and yellow fruits, fine pear and wild herbs. Full-bodied on the palate, with concentrated and perfectly balanced fruit, and lingering salinity.
Grapes for the Nussberg Wiener Gemischter Satz are grown in Wieninger’s Ulm vineyard, which lies on a very steep southern slope on the eastern part of the Nussberg, directly next to the Danube river. The vineyards have been certified organic and biodynamic since 2011. Soils here consist of calcareous shell limestone with small amounts of clay underneath. This area of the Nussberg region is understood to be a remnant of a coral reef from the Tertiary period.
Fritz Wieninger is considered a pioneer of the ‘New Vienna’ wine movement, combining a sense of modernity and progress with the traditions of the region and of his family, who have been making wine for over 100 years.
