Franz Weninger Fehérburgundi

750ml - 12.5% ABV — Frettner Vineyard, Sopron, Hungary

100% Fehérburgundi (Pinot Blnnc)

Grown on the Hungarian side of lake Neusiedlersee (Fertő-tó in Hungarian) this is a single varietal gem. Delicately scented floral notes emanate from the glass along with citrus and grass. This wine has undergone natural malolactic fermentation and has spent 14 months on the lees, giving it a great acidity and fruitiness. 

"Anyone who wants to experience what is meant by Vin Vivant - living wine - should take a look at the (2018) Fehérburgundi (Pinot Blanc). Thrived on slate soils in Franz Weninger's biodynamic vineyards on the Hungarian side of the Neusiedlersee. A delicately scented, floral delicacy, wild flower meadows blooming in the nose, lemon balm, wet grass with a good portion of fresh lime and grapefruit zest. On the palate incredibly precise and firm with mouthwashing juiciness thanks to its stimulating, slightly pointed acidity, restrained phenolics and saltiness. Can you taste the minerality of the different soils and locations? I say yes. A natural wine that couldn't be finer without being forced into some kind of corset or subordinating to certain dogmas. More than just an introduction to this wonderful world of wine for (far too) little money. " (Risto Rieger)
