Simply, Schloss Gobelsburg is my favorite Austrian winery. I’ve always been a fan of their Rieslings and Gruner Veltliner, of course, but we’ve just started bringing in their rose, reds and even a killer sparkling! Is there anything they can’t do? And do excellently?
Rose for Gobelsburg is not seen as a secondary product to red wine. That is, they aren’t making a rose simply to concentrate their red wines by bleeding off lighter juice.
But they aren’t striving to make a Tavel-like rose. Rather, Gobelsburg chooses grapes from the cooler sections of vineyards. Their aim is to produce a “Provencal”-syle rose, with elegant aromas, vibrant acidity and a fresh profile. Zweigelt, St. Laurent and Pinot Noir form the basis of this little gem.
A delicate yet clear bouquet of red fruits, juniper berries and citrus lead into a racy, zesty wine. Hints of cherries and lime lead into a mineral-laced finish. Of course, this makes for perfect porch-sipping.
