1ÖTW Erste Lage Kamptal DAC

Pale yellow-green with silver reflections. Delicate hints of herbal spice, lemon balm, and subtle tobacco nuances, accompanied by Golden Delicious apple, fresh mango, notes of papaya, and a touch of blossom honey, creating a complex and multifaceted bouquet. Juicy and tightly structured on the palate, with a spicy core, a vibrant and layered acidity, white apple fruit, pronounced minerality, and impressive depth. Persistent on the finish with excellent length and reliable ageing potential.
The soil here differs from that of all other sites in the region. At the 300 metre level, preserved calcareous, clayey marine deposits are found. This soil is similar to that of the famous Château Petrus in Pomerol, and produces an extremely dense wine, although it is difficult to work with. The elevation contributes good acidity structure also in warm vintages and late harvests.
