Riesling Zobinger Heiligenstein 2018 - Brundlmayer
The Bründlmayer family owns 12 hectares right in the middle of the Zöbinger Heiligenstein. 10.5 hectares are planted with Riesling, the rest for experimental purposes with Cabernet (mainly Cabernet Franc).

The graceful character follows completely on the palate, always with lively fruit nuances, playful and quite elegant, setting a new standard for this category; lively with a long finish and room to grow.
