Schloss Gobelsburg Brut Reserve
10th April 2014
The Kamptal DAC region is one of the three top wine-growing areas of the Danube region. The estate was founded in the 12th Century by Cistercian monks, who produced wine until the late 1990’s, when Michael Moosbrugger took over.
Brut Reserve
The basis of this sparkling is a cross-section of varieties (Pinot Noir, Riesling, Grüner Veltliner) from throughout the wine estate and its sites. The grapes from Heiligenstein, Gaisberg, Grub and Lamm are at the right moment harvested in small boxes and immediately pressed, whereby only the core of the basic wine is used. After six months of cask storage, it is filled into bottles for the second fermentation. It then rests for two to three years on the yeast, which contributes a creamy texture, until it is turned slightly and shaken by hand, then degorged.
