Riesling Vießlinger Ried Bruck 2020

Details about the wine
The Vießlinger Riede Bruck with 12 hectares is a traditional site in the Spitzer Graben. Numerous stone terraces lie at its heart, protecting smaller plots characterised by orthogneiss and lime-free volcanic metamorphic rocks. Mica schist inclusions deepen the geological diversity. After fermentation, the Riesling matured on full lees in stainless steel.

Scent
The Bruck Riesling is a flavourful, creamy and bright wine with an impressive fruitiness. It is reminiscent of delicate citrus notes such as kumquats and grapefruit, paired with crisp yellow plums, peaches and nectarines. A symphony of crushed stone and herbs plays in the background, giving the Riesling a radiant mineral character.

Taste
On the palate, the Bruck is juicy, bright, clear and spicy at the same time, and its palette ranges from slate spice to salt, with some orange zest and lots of stone fruit that is so ripe that the juice could almost run out of the corners of your mouth. The current vintage refreshes with dynamism, finesse, lots of energy and a pleasant bite. The Bruck knows how to inspire!
