Permstein 2023

The Heiligenstein vineyard is known for its unique geology and a grape variety composition which has been around for decades. The vineyards located in Zöbing have distinguished themselves for years from other wine villages in the area with the high proportion of Riesling that's grown there.

Our Permstein is a unique and exciting village wine cultivated like in the olden days. Vinified from two grape varieties that harmonize wonderfully together: Riesling from the high, meagre terraced areas, combined with Grüner Veltliner grapes from the foot of the Heiligenstein, produce a rich, invigorating wine.

Making of the wine

Both Riesling and Grüner Veltliner were selectively hand harvested on the same day. After a short maceration period, both grapes varieties were carefully pressed and the must spontaneously fermented in neutral oak barrels without any temperature regulation. By maturing on the full yeast for ten months, the wine was able to fully develop and thereby present its uniqueness, which is further enhanced by being bottled unfiltered.
