Weingut Pittnauer, Saint Laurent Dorflagen

2016 St. Laurent Made from grapes from the Salzbergacker, Goldberg, and Edelgrund vineyards, all situated near the southern edge of the plateau “Parndorfer Platte,” where temperatures are slightly cooler and windy. Soils here are rich in iron, with some humus and good drainage due to the gravelly, slightly dense alluvial soils. The vines are aged between 15-20 years, yielding about 45 hL/ha, a low yield which is essential not only to concentrate the wine, but to make it more age-worthy. After 14 days of maceration, spontaneous fermentation begins without temperature-control in used 500L wooden barrels. Aged in the same barrels for one year. Not filtered. Organic
