Riesling
Schloss Gobelsburg Ried Heiligenstein Erste Lage Riesling 2020
Drink it now or cellar for up to 15 years. No need to decant.
Schloss Gobelsburg can be considered the oldest continuously operated winery in the Kamptal Danube region, and one of the oldest in Europe. The company has been managed by Eva and Michael Moosbrugger since 1996, with the aim to continue the centuries-old history of this cultural asset. In these venerable walls beneath the Gobelsburg, cellarman Franz Karner slowly and coldly ages the wines in large, neutral wooden barrels. The spectacular new basement, which looks old, was recently completed in the most elaborate handiwork, just like it used to be done in the Middle Ages.
The Ried Heiligenstein vineyard is interspersed with Riesling terraces and is located on the local mountain of the same name in Langenlois. Here the vines thrive on a unique soil structure consisting of silt, arkose, sandstone, and organic sediments. Some of the vines are among the oldest cultivated by Schloss Gobelsburg.
The juicy and elegant Riesling of Ried Heiligenstein has a medium yellow-green color, with bright reflections. On the nose, there are delicate herbaceous notes, orange peel, a touch of peach, and light hints of chamomile. One the palate, the wine is endowed with good complexity. The acidity is well integrated, the minerality is decisive, and the final is long and complex. It is excellent with oysters and white fish.
