Tasting note
Character
An uncompromisingly dry, puristic sparkling wine with gripping freshness and a fine perlage. The wine combines the unadulterated aromatics of the grape variety with an invigorating acid structure. On the palate, it is slender, energetic and boasts a remarkable drive – a stylistic statement that pairs effortless drinkability with an artisanal ethos.
Terroir & Origin
Hails from the dramatic, extremely steep vineyard sites of Southern Styria around Ehrenhausen, where the Tement winery has been setting masterful standards for decades. The calcareous soils impart a defining structure to the region’s wines and chisel out the delicate texture for which this border region is internationally renowned.
Grape Variety & Vinification
Shaped by the highly elegant Gelber Muskateller variety. Cultivated according to the strict guidelines of Demeter and Respekt-BIODYN, the 2022 vintage reflects the uncompromising quality philosophy of brothers Armin and Stefan Tement. The artisanal sparkling winemaking in the style of the Méthode Rurale allows the primary grape aromatics, in interplay with spontaneous fermentation, to emerge unfiltered, raw and full of life. Aged as a Brut Nature, it dispenses with any dosage.
Food Pairings
Outstanding as a stimulating aperitif or alongside light, herb-forward starters. Perfectly suited to freshwater fish ceviche, prawn tempura or a fresh summer salad with ewe’s milk cheese.
