Formula for success
But the effort is worth it, as fellow winemakers also know Toni Bodenstein in the Wachau or Christian Tschida on the Leithaberg, which produces legendary wines from stock cultures. The dense and competitive planting forces the plants to be particularly to have deep roots. This in turn extracts more minerality and soil character.
Tasting
To mark the anniversary, we tasted three selected vintages of Grüner Veltliner Stockkultur:
Neustifter 2011
Strong golden yellow; Chamomile, tobacco, hay and ripe pear on the nose; round but robust tannins on the palate, notes of honey and dried fruit. Nashi pear in the aftertaste. He still seems almost youthful and doesn’t show his age at all.
Neustifter 2017
Muted golden yellow; Dried fruits, pear and plantain on the nose; Calm and balanced on the palate with almonds, pome fruit and fine bitter notes.
Neustifter 2020
golden yellow; Stone fruit, candied fruit and pineapple on the nose; Attractive fruit melt on the palate, fine tannin structure with stone fruit (peach!) in the aftertaste. Already drinkable, but still has some potential.
