Vineyard and terroir
The grapes come from Mareit Leiten, Vogelleiten and Panholzer. Mareit Leiten lies at 350 m on a very steep, south-facing slope with prolonged sun exposure. Its warm gravelly soil contains morainic deposits. Vogelleiten and Panholzer have clay-limestone gravel soils.
Grapes
100% Goldmuskateller, also identified as Golden Muscat.
Vinification
The destemmed berries macerated in the press for 12 hours to draw aroma and structure from the skins. Fermentation took place in wooden barrels and stainless-steel tanks, predominantly spontaneously with indigenous yeasts.
Ageing
Five months on the fine lees refined the wine’s aroma and flavour.
Technical data

Tasting profile
Bright straw yellow. Delicate nutmeg, cedarwood and grapefruit aromas lead to a fruity, juicy and mineral palate with a persistent finish.

Vintage notes
The 2025 season opened with early budbreak and a warm spring, followed by flowering in mid-May. July and August delivered abundant sunshine and moderate rainfall. September rain demanded precise work and careful hand harvesting. The Muscat was picked in mid-October with golden-yellow berries and particularly intense aromas; yield was limited to 33 hL/ha.
