„Tag“ Edition 3

Wine description for „Tag“ Edition 3 by Meinklang

Colour & Appearance

Cloudy lemon yellow – natural and unfiltered, as befits an authentic natural wine. The slight cloudiness bears witness to vitality and artisanal integrity.

Nose

Surprisingly unconventional and refreshingly different: Initially the aroma recalls fresh yeast and apple must, then fresh ginger, coriander, lemon zest, kumquats and quince unfold. An aromatic meadow in a glass – vibrant, primal and with an almost euphoric freshness that awakens spring feelings even on grey winter days.

Palate

Juicy and crisp with invigorating acidity that enlivens the palate. A fine yeast layer carries the texture, whilst saline notes and peppery spice provide tension. Fruity notes of orange, apple and quince emerge without ever becoming obtrusive. The balance between fruit, spice and mineral freshness is masterful.

Finish

Appetising and spicy with lingering pepper notes and saline minerality. The finish makes you crave the next sip – or the next bite.

Terroir & Origin

From the Neusiedl Lake in Burgenland, where Meinklang practises biodynamic viticulture. Pannonian warmth meets cool breezes from the lake – ideal conditions for vibrant, characterful wines with natural freshness.

Grape Variety & Vinification

Welschriesling in its most primal form: natural, unfiltered and vinified with minimal intervention. The yeast work lends the wine complexity and texture without masking the varietal’s characteristic freshness.

Food Pairing Suggestions

A versatile companion to pumpkin purée with aubergines and onion pickle, rocket salad with grilled peaches and feta or apple and kohlrabi soup with sautéed chicken liver. But equally enjoyable on its own – best served not too cold from large glasses.

Special Features

A natural wine that combines character and drinking pleasure. Authentic, unvarnished and with that touch of wildness that makes honest biodynamic wines so fascinating.
