Strohmeier

TLZ Weiss No. 8 NV

An absolutely etherial wine – a touch of skin-contact and some time spent in old oak barrels gives this wine a little weightiness on the palate, without sacrificing any of its freshness. 'Trauben, Leibe und Zeit' (or 'Grapes, Love and Time') are all Franz Strohmeier believes are needed for a beautiful wine, and we couldn't agree more. Franz's winemaking philosophy is grounded in an utmost respect for nature, taking the thriving biodiversity in his vineyards as a thumbs up from Mother Nature that he's making the right decisions – and after one taste of this wine, we think you'll agree too!
