TLZ - Lysegrøn N°7 2019
Christine and Franz Strohmeier
White - Styria
Natural | Biodynamic | No Sulfites | Unfiltered |
Lysegrøn means “light green” in Danish, in a nod to the special relationship that Franz has with his Danish importer and customers, such as restaurant Noma, whose appreciation for his then-unusually natural wines kept the Strohmeier winery afloat when their Austrian customers turned their backs on their zero-sulfur approach.
Weissburgunder grown on gneiss with high iron and silica content. Harvested by hand with a careful selection of only very healthy and ripe bunches. Free-run juice only, spontaneously fermented and matured for 12 months in used 500-liter wooden oak barrels. Unfined, unfiltered, no sulfur added.
Apearence: Extraordinary structure and elegance of the grape. Serve at 15 degrees in Burgundy glass to fully appreciate it.
