Biodynamic dessert wine, made from 100% Grüner Veltliner. Taken entirely from the Goldnagel, Nibiru's most important vineyard site: higher-elevation, old terraces, dominated by the dark, glittery, schist-like Amphibolit soils. Vines planted in 1973. Winemaker Josef Schenter waited until mid-December to harvest this fruit entirely by hand, berry by berry (in the freezing cold!); it was then fermented in neutral oak. Afterward, the wine was racked into a steel tank which Josef drove outside into the cold to slow fermentation to a crawl. It spent one year in stainless steel in cold temperatures until bottling. Total RS 46g/l. This is magic stuff for the price; there's very little like it that's this handmade.
