Bright, medium green-yellow. Fine nutty roasted aromas, a hint of papaya and guava, some blossom honey, mineral notes, orange zest, very inviting bouquet. Complex, tightly meshed, multi-faceted acid structure, precise and long-lasting, juicy mango fruit on the finish, mineral, salty in the aftertaste, finely spicy in the aftertaste, has reached an initial drinking maturity, safe further potential.

Producer Information

Born in 1940, Anton Kollwentz is the fourth Kollwentz of this name among six generations of the Kollwentzes in Grosshöflein. At the age of 18 Anton became responsible for his parents' cellar. What makes this man stand out especially are his conscientiousness and love of experimenting. The Falstaff Wine Guide on Kollwentz: “This is what really makes great winemakers: whether a small vintage or a terrific year, you can always rely on them. And for years now you can count on the Kollwentz family at every tasting – dealing with whatever style and variety." Anton Kollwentz already made a name for himself in the 1960s with his noble sweet wines. The high yields of beerenausleses and trockenbeerenausleses in 1969, one of the vintages of the century, led Anton Kollwentz to leave the path of mere sale from the premises of his estate and try his luck with Western Austria´s gastronomy. In that same year, he managed to supply his wines to leading houses in Saalbach and one year later on the Arlberg. Assured by the demands from upscale restaurants, he turned towards dry white wines in 1970. For more than a decade he was deemed the sole advocate of dry Burgenland white.
