1ÖTW Erste Lage Kamptal DAC

Bright golden yellow with silver highlights. Hints of ripe yellow pome fruit, a touch of acacia blossoms, a hint of sponge cake, underpinned by candied orange zest. Complex and full-bodied, with ripe mango, a delicate hint of honeydew melon, and a subtle balance of acidity; powerful and mineral on the finish, with very good length. Already fully developed, with aging 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.
