Christina Netzl began her path towards natural wine-making as a young girl of 5 years old, working on her family’s farm and vineyard with her parents and grandparents.
Over the last 10 years working at the winery, Christina has fallen in love with ancient wine making practices and thus has now launched this natural line of wines we are proud to represent.
The St. Laurent grapes love warm days, as they do cooler nights, and most importantly windy places – like the Edles Tal. The warm pannonian climate in combination with the cool winds from the River Danube therefore brings ideal conditions for this elegant variety. The grapes are able to ripen, while also keeping their typical fresh acidity, which makes the St. Laurent wines very interesting and charismatic.
Whole bunches are sorted gently in open boxes and ferment carbonically, in a very slow and cold fermentation in the old cellar. After 3 weeks the whole bunches are pressed into old oak vats, finishing fermentation as juice. Elevage takes place in 500 liter vats for 18 months. The wine is lightly sulfured at bottling.
A fun and charismatic wine!
