We love unknown wine traditions. Take the Rotgipfler and Zierfandler. Two rare white grapes that only grow in the Austrian Thermenregion. Winegrowers have been mixing it with Spätrot-Rotgipfler for centuries, because Spätrot is the local pet name for the Zierfandler.| Color: | White | Taste profile: | Full and dry | Country: | Austria |

The Thermenregion is an Austrian wine district with unique grapes that you will not find anywhere else in the world. And then we are mainly talking about the Rotgipfler and Zierfandler. Wine growing was probably introduced in the Thermenregion by the Romans around the beginning of our era. They had a large army base in Carnuntum, which is a little further away. Vineyards were planted in the wide area to provide the soldiers with the noble liquid.

Bijna goudgeel en vrij nadrukkelijk aanwezig in het glas. Ruikt en smaakt naar rijp fruit zoals meloen, peer en abrikoos. Heeft vrij weinig zuren. Heel mooie en sappige wijn van o.a. Rotgipfler waar de Oostenrijkers heel zuinig op moeten zijn! Lijkt interessanter dan de Grüner Veltliner. Er is ook een Top Selection, die minstens €35 kost, maar dan ook meer dan uitstekend is. Deze Gumpoldskirchner is zijn prijs van €11,75 meer dan waard.
