Le Caveau Wine Merchants - Judith Beck Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc) - Natural - Austria

Natural
Picked by hand, Weissburgunder (aka Pinot Blanc) is matured for 6 months in oak casks on the entire lees and is fragrant and refreshing. Pale golden-yellow colour, refreshing aromas of citrus, pears and white peaches. Full-bodied and well structured on the palate with balanced fruit, acidity and a long finish. It is showing a bright lemon yellow in colour, with youthful green hints. Aromas of fresh green apples are accompanied by an attractive spiciness. Exotic fruit and ripe citrus flavours perfectly balance this wine's refreshing acidity.

Judith Beck’s winery is run as a family business. From 2007 Judith has produced wines in accordance with biodynamic principles. The winery is housed in an impressive airy new building in the middle of the vineyards from Gols.
“We encourage the formation of humus, as a basis of healthy soils, by regularly applying cattle manure which we prepare ourselves and by cultivating grass between the rows. Herbal teas (such as stinging nettle, chamomile, field horsetail …) and biodynamic field sprays such as horn manure and horn silica are used under the consideration of moon rhythms; their purpose being to strengthen resistance and further the physiological ripeness of grapes.”
Low Intervention = No chemicals in the vineyard, no additives (except for homeopathic amount of SO2) in the wine.
