Description

Product description for Nittnaus Anita & Hans Ried Bergschmallister Jois, Leithaberg DAC 2021 (bio)

Wine Information

The hand-picked grapes for this mineral Chardonnay, which was vinified specifically for the first time with the 2015 vintage, come from the approximately 0.4-hectare “Bergschmallister” vineyard in the lower part of the Jois Tannenberg, where the slate is layered with limestone. An ideal location for Chardonnay.

Colour

Light golden yellow with silvery reflections.

Nose

The 2021 Ried Bergschmallister Chardonnay from Jois presents itself somewhat closed due to its youth. The intense character of the mineral soil in which it grew is clearly recognizable. Notes of matchsticks and fine spice from aging in small wooden barrels skillfully capture its aroma. It calls for the carafe, then indulges us with firm pear, delicate citrus fruit, fresh apple, and quince.

Palate

It packs a punch on the palate with plenty of pull. The fruit is juicy, and the spice is distinctive. It is joined by beautiful apple and pear notes, as well as meadow herb notes. Its Burgundian, refined finish is characterized by distinct minerality and a piquant tannin, which evokes a great desire to accompany complex cuisine. Serve in a larger glass, not too chilled!
