An elegant Erste Lage Riesling from Austria's Kamptal region, sourced from the distinctive Heiligenstein vineyard's southeast-facing terraces. Biodynamic farming and careful whole-bunch pressing preserve purity; natural fermentation in stainless steel and large oak yields a wine of exceptional aromatic clarity. Reddish-brown sandstone terroir imparts minerality, while apricot and bergamot peel notes define the nose. The palate is scented, fluid, and beautifully tapered.

More about Hirsch

Johannes Hirsch tends 31 hectares of biodynamic vineyards in Austria's Kamptal, crafting Grüner Veltliner and Riesling from some of the region's finest terroir. A young master of the form, Hirsch was the first winery in Austria to go all-screwcap—a decision that speaks to his precision and forward-thinking approach. His wines embody the elegant clarity the Kamptal can achieve.

One reason that Weingut Hirsch's wines are so good is that Johannes Hirsch did a lot of things first. He was one of the first in Austria to dump Chardonnay and really focus on Kamptal's great varieties of Riesling and Grüner Veltliner. He was one of the first to farm biodynamically. He was first to switch all closures to stelvin. So he's had a longer time to perfect this style of hyper-artisanal winemaking than virtually anyone else in Austria.

There were hiccups along the way. Not everyone loved the Rieslings from the late aughts that ended up with some residual sugar. But it turns out that this was just what nature wanted to do in those vintages. And since then, Hirsch (and nature) have made nothing but classical, dry Grüners and Rieslings. He has avoided the trend towards higher octane Austrian wines that we have seen elsewhere. With lower alcohol levels, Hirsch shows the pure, crystalline essence of Austrian Grüners and Rieslings.
