This Zierfandler Ried Preisen Bio from Winery Auer comes from the Ried Preisen vineyard in Pfaffstätten, in the wine-growing municipality of Gumpoldskirchen – a 1ÖTW Erste Lage site in the Thermenregion. The organically cultivated vines produce a powerful, full-bodied Zierfandler that combines a clear sense of origin, structure and the distinctive signature of Leopold Auer and his family.
The grapes are processed with great care, allowing the clean must to be transferred into used barrique barrels. The must is given plenty of time, ferments at higher temperatures and receives around 10% whole berries to add greater complexity to the wine. The Zierfandler then remains on the full lees until May and is stirred every two weeks. In the glass, it displays a medium golden yellow colour with silver reflections, accompanied by vanilla, yellow tropical fruit, hints of peach and delicate woody spice. On the palate, it is complex, juicy and creamy, with melon, caramel, delicate fruit sweetness on the finish and excellent ageing potential.
