Vintage 2005

Wines of the vintage 2005. An overall challenging year for winemakers altough with a good outcome. Spring and summer were rather cool and rainy but at least in our area, the very east of Austria, we can always count on a few hot summer days to help grape ripeness. Lively and tangy white wines dominated the vintage. The reds where a bit lighter than average but offered great fruityness. In autumn the conditions became great for Botrytis and so, just like ten years before in the great vintage 1995, exceptional qualities of noble-sweet dessert wines like Trockenbeerenauslese (TBA) were harvested.
