Jutta Ambrositsch

Rosengartel 2015

A wine that in Marco's words (Jutta's husband): "It's like going to church, only fresh and deluxe! Tall white candles and roasted almonds in fleur de sel come promptly to mind when wetting the tongue with this tenderloin of Vienna’s Nussberg...

In other words: Jutta is entirely in agreement with this Riesling."

This is Riesling from the iconic Rosengartel vineyard planted on limestone soils, organically farmed by Jutta. Due to laws and regulations, this is the last vintage that Jutta could call this cuvée by the vineyard name; so from future vintages onwards it will be known as Riesling Utopie.

The wine fermented naturally and was bottled unfined and unfiltered.
