2018 Weingut Moric Hausmarke 'Super Natural', Burgenland, Austria
$30.00
In Burgenland, the cuvee is a far more popular art form than one might guess from its modest import presence in the USA. Why? Because the Austrians drink almost all of them themselves, especially the whites, which go quite swimmingly alongside something that just got hauled out of the lake this morning. Here we've got a combination of 75% Grüner Veltliner blended with a mixture of 25% Chardonnay, highlighting the verve and spice of the former, married to the patience and lush palate-coating texture of the latter. Roland uses oak, but never any new wood, and never any small wood, so the barrels are typically at least 500 L.
