Nikolaihof
Nikolaihof Grüner Veltliner Zwickl 2021
Nikolaihof's wines are a true reflection of their unique terroir, biodynamic know-how, and ancestral winemaking techniques. Their holdings in the Wachau region near Mautern are among the oldest known vineyards in Europe. In fact, "im Weingebirge" has been mentioned as far back as 470AD.
One of Nikolaihof's unique offerings is their unfiltered "Hefeabzug" wine, which gives you two wines in the same bottle. By pouring carefully, you get a clear wine from the top one-third of the bottle. Then, you can shake the rest of the bottle to mix the sediment and pour yourself a cloudy glass of tasty atavism. Nikolaihof encourages this fun and unique experience.
The resulting wines from Nikolaihof are unlike any other in the world of winemaking. They are singular and irreplicable due to the quality of their terroir, biodynamic practices, and traditional winemaking techniques.
