來自Wachau的Elisabeth Pichler-Krutzler和來自Burgenland的Erich Krutzler於2006年在Wachau開設了自己的酒莊,兩夫婦都來自著名的釀酒家族(FX Pichler 和Krutzler),他們一起以優質靈魂和個性製作酒品,完全尊重自然和可持續發展的葡萄種植方式。
這些都是Erich Krutzler於九十年代定下來的足跡,當時他為家族在Südburgenland出產出色而有性格的紅酒,這也解釋了為甚麼Burgenland Blaufränkisch會和Riesling 及 Grüner Veltliner同時出現在貨品系列中。
Pichler-Krutzler的葡萄酒皆突顯純淨,也從不會為品質妥協。所有酒都充分反映其風土,收成、培養和裝瓶都不作混合其他品種。因為沒有加糖、所有作發酵的糖份全來自葡萄汁、Unfined,所以酒都如實清楚地表現產地根源,是絕不譁眾取寵的高級手工藝品。

品酒筆記:
這裡非凡的香氣包括煙灰、碎石和草本精華。口感緊實,富有感染力,多汁,傳達了石灰、利馬豆和混合瓜類基質中的礦物質和草本元素。伴隨著葡萄酒的原汁原味和驚人的複雜性。
Elisabeth Pichler-Krutzler from the Wachau and Erich Krutzler from the Burgenland founded their own wine estate in the Wachau in 2006. Both husband and wife originated from famous wine-making families. Together, they craft wines of great soul and individuality, based on a respect form nature and sustainable viticultural practice.
All this is a continuation of the path that Erich Krutzler set out on in the 1990s when he helped his family estate produce outstanding and characterful red wines in the Südburgenland. This is why a Burgenland Blaufränkisch finds its place in the range alongside Riesling and Grüner Veltliner.
The Pichler-Krutzler wines are pure, unadulterated and made without compromise to quality. Each wine is the reflection of its own terroir, harvested, raised and bottled without blending. Since there is no chaptalization, no juice concentration, no fining or additives of any sort, all the wines express their origins plain and clear. Just high-grade handcraft without any fancy trends.
Region:
Wachau, Austria
Country of Origin:
Austria
Type:
White/Blanc (Still)
Grape Variety:
Grüner Veltliner
Terroir:
Ried(Single VIneyard) Pfaffenberg is high above the river Danube on the famous Steiner Pfaffenberg. The soils are barren and are composed of crystalline primary rock dominated by Gneiss and Mica schist. Mostly cool winds are breezing from the west and it is hence exposed to temperature extremes. The Pfaffenberg is supposed to be one of the best places for Riesling in entire Austria. Fine wine are turning up in the glass: transparent and highly elegant without any heaviness or richness.
Vinification and Ageing:
Natural yeasts used for fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Ageing in stainless steel tanks.
Tasting Notes:
The extraordinary nose here encompasses ash, crushed stone, and herbal essences. Firm in feel and infectiously juicy, the palate conveys those mineral and herbal elements in lime, lima bean, and mixed melon matrix. It would be nice to have a bit more textural allure to accompany the wine’s otherwise ravishing as well as striking complexity, but that might well come with some bottle age.
