2021 von der Vogelwaide Balztanz Blanc Wachau, Austria
$39.99
40% Grüner Veltliner, 35% Müller-Thurgau, 25% Riesling. Sourced from multiple tiny parcels across the Vogelwaide holdings. Whole-cluster, fermented and aged in a mix of stainless steel and neutral oak. ‘Balztanz’ is a cuvée name that winemakers Daniel and Michael describe as ‘the mating dance of the bird world,’ and it’s used for their lighter-bodied, more expressive or easygoing wines. The birds on the label are also non-native to the Wachau valley, indicating that these are the two cuvées for which the duo purchases a small amount fruit to augment their tiny-parcel, steep slope estate fruit.
