Complete description
Vintage Description:
Medium lemon-green with silver reflections. Delicate tangerine zest and a dark savouriness combine with ripe peach fruit on the smoky, inviting bouquet. Textured and very complex, with white fruit nuances, fine fruit, and a ripe peach finish. It is still a little reserved and will benefit from bottle ageing. (Peter Moser - Falstaff, June 12, 2018)wine:

RieslingÖnologe:
Toni Bodensteinvineyard:
Klaus is so to speak the continuation of Achleiten, however, it is separated by a path that serves as a boundary, which also represents a geological fault. The name can be followed back to the old term "Kleyss" and designates a constriction; this is self-explanatory when looking at the old road to Wachau leading along the Klaus vineyard.
Soil:
The terraced vineyards of the Riede are dominated by migmatite amphibolite. Paragneiss is at home in the lower Klaus.Ernte:
Selective hand-picking in several tris.Vinification:
Gentle pressing at low pressure, controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks. According to the Codex Wachau the fermentation with autochthonous yeast is an essential element of vinification. The use of enzymes is generally rejected.Residual sugar:
