About the wine

Viticulture here dates back several centuries. Where the ancestors once founded visionary cooperatives in order to make winegrowing possible at all due to the small-scale ownership structure. With Anton Baron Longo on Wellenburg and Langenstein, another visionary - i.e. one who sees what is possible before others and reaches for it - has once again started growing his own wine in 2011. But the fact that he not only bottles outstanding, sometimes sensitive, sometimes sensitively expressive wines in such a short period of time and manages to convert the 20 ha to biodynamic viticulture (Demeter 2023) and sustainable corporate management is as unbelievable as it is true and encouraging. The new, bright star in South Tyrol's wine sky.

Tasting note
Surfer with depth aka adult free spirit - The sun is lower, the hair is still tangled by the sea, but there is now more peace in the eye, more focus on the train. Instead of just the fresh bite, there is now also the warmth of the wooden planks: A scent of ripe citrus fruit, grapefruit peel and mandarin, infused with salty spray, moist stone and a whiff of roasted almonds. On the palate, it is supple and wide, and the yeast storage gives it a new, silky fullness. But don't worry — its robust character has remained: The acid penetrates tautly, the minerality pulsates hard and grippy, like jumping into cool water after a long summer day.
Culinary recommendation
Flaschenpöstler recommends this Urgestein Sauvignon Blanc IGT with mussels, goat cheese and white meat.
Vinification
Selective reading by hand. Whole grape pressing, spontaneous fermentation with the vineyard's own yeasts, aging on the yeast in large wooden barrels. Unfiltered.
