Schloss Gobelsburg Pinot Noir Reserve 2016
Description
Schloss Gobelsburg is a Cistercian monastic estate and one of the oldest wineries in the Austrian Danube area with a documented history that dates back to 1171. All the vineyards are located on slopes and terraces around the valley of the river Kamp near the town of Langenlois and the village of Gobelsburg. Schloss Gobelsburgs specialises in Grüner Veltliner and Riesling and produces authentic and noble wines from a different single vineyard, village and regional appellations. The winery is a member of the association 'Österreichische Traditionsweingüter', which is working on a vineyard classification project for the Danube area.
The Cistercian monks of the Stift Zwettl monastery brought Pinot Noir to Langenlois from their ancient homeland, Burgundy. This variety holds a strong symbolic meaning for the Cistercians
Maturation of the wine lasts for 18 months in Austrian oak barrels and then for another 6 months in bottles. The wine is unfiltered. A definite contender for a village wine from Burgundy. Classic red fruits and earthy notes. Pinot Noir with structure and balance.
