HM Lang Riesling This Is Not A Love Song Holzfass 2018

Austria / Kremstal/ Riede Steiner Schreck

Heidelinde and Markus Lang have been cultivating their 2.5 hectare small vineyards in an uncompromisingly natural way from the start. Even in the cellar, only minimal use is made of it intervened. The trained mechanical engineer designed his own wine press based on a historical model from Roman times. It is manually operated and stands above an abandoned tunnel where the winemaker couple have set up their wine cellar. Only through the fall pressure does the must go directly into the barrels in the cellar. Here the wines are given a lot of time to develop. The fermentation occurs spontaneously with natural yeasts, the wine matures for many months on the full yeast and even the filled bottles are given a rest before they are sold. This is how long-lasting, precise, characterful, simply great wines are created.
