Gumpoldskirchen Grosse Reserve Blanc de Noirs Brut Nature 2016 1500ml

Vinification process
This wine underwent spontaneous fermentation in wooden barrels at a controlled temperature of 18° to 22° for a period of 2 to 4 weeks, followed by a biological acid reduction. It was then matured for a further seven months in wooden barrels and spent an additional three months on the fine lees in steel tanks. This Blanc de Noirs Brut Nature by Loimer from the 2016 vintage was bottled in September 2017 and spent at least 44 months on its lees before being disgorged in April 2021. And all this without additional dosage.

Optics
This sparkling wine appears in a bright golden yellow and impresses with its fine and lively perlage.

Fragrance profile
The aromas of this complex and multi-faceted sparkling wine surprise with a mix of bright red fruits, delicate almond tones, wild herbs and earthy tones. This bouquet is refined by subtle nuances of beetroot, soy and seaweed, creating a surprising umami effect.

Taste experience
The 2016 Great Reserve Blanc de Noirs Brut Nature from Loimer enchants the palate. Sometimes charming, sometimes sophisticated, this wine fascinates time and again. The fine sparkle of the carbonic acid harmonises wonderfully with fruit and spice, making this sparkling wine an excellent aperitif and a perfect companion for savoury dishes, especially in the cooler months of the year.

- Beetroot tartare with mozzarella and a raspberry dressing, garnished with pecans
- Roasted chicken served with a casserole of blueberries and hazelnuts, served with a balsamic reduction
- Filo dumplings with braised hare, porcini mushrooms and pointed cabbage.
