FURTH - Ortswein (village wine). The village of Furth bei Göttweig (established 1138) is the gateway to the UNESCO world cultural heritage Wachau region. Branches of the Dunkelsteiner Forest impart much natural beauty to the surrounding landscape. One ofAustria’s greatest baroque jewels, the Benedictine abbeyStift Göttweig – designed by Lucas von Hildebrant –welcomes visitors from its idyllic setting atop the mountainside known as Göttweiger Berg.
The village of Furth is favoured by a variety of microclimatic conditions. These allow the vegetation to breathe, bringing the delicately spicy and cool air of the Dunkelsteiner Forest together with warm Pannonian air masses and the natural humidity of the Danube region. These features are complemented by a wide array of geologic variants, ranging from gravelly and sandy soil to loess and loam, all the way to weathered primeval rock and thus – in interplay with the different grape varieties –yield an enormous stylistic diversity of wines. This is an ideal setting for Grüner Veltliner and Riesling. We produce middleweight wines from the village appellation “Furth”, vinified in stainless steel tank, with ca. 12.5% alcohol.
Ripe vineyard peaches in the nose, supported by mineral notes with a whiff of lemon zest. Racy and refreshing on the palate, with delicate notes of apricot; very well balanced.
