Bright acidity and tangy peach notes. Classic Gemischter (he says as though he knows them well.)

The ZAHEL family winery has a long and proud history in Vienna and Alex very much preserves and builds upon that history but he’s also right up at the cutting edge of contemporary thinking for the region as well. He produces a number of different Gemischter Satz, his Wiener feels typically Austrian for example (yes, we did write that) whilst the Nussberg has distinctly more weight and feels more Burgundian in style. He also produces a truly enticing range of wines which started out as experimental bottlings but which now make up a regular, though individually very limited, part of his range.

Field blend picked and fermented together, the only sorting allowed is in the vineyard. 8 months on lees to allow a richness to develop.

Drinks really well on its own. Fresh and bright, made for a Summers' evening with the BBQ on.
