Vintage 2023

Nepomuk is our blend of St. Laurent and Zweigelt, made medium-dry. The grapes come from Ried Steinjoch in Tattendorf and were picked on 21 September 2023. Before the harvest the Lower Austrian Chamber of Agriculture had expected the late ripening to bring harmonious wines with a good balance of sugar and acidity.

Harmonious is what it became, and very easy to drink. There are 2.000 litres of it. At competitions the Nepomuk cuvée selection 2023 collected gold at the Lower Austria State Wine Awards.

Nepomuk 2021 was our off-dry blend of St. Laurent and Zweigelt from the Ried Steinjoch in Tattendorf. We brought the grapes in on 5 October 2021. Even before the harvest the word for all of Austria was healthy grapes and a good balance between sugar and acidity.
