Description

Riesling Federspiel Terrassen viene prodotto con uve di Riesling situate su terrazzamenti dell'intera regione Wachau. I vigneti sono coltivati in modo sostenibile e con un'attenzione sempre più rivolta al biologico, e dunque senza l'utilizzo di insetticidi ed erbicidi. Le uve sono raccolte a mano e selezionate con cura, e in seguito pigiate in presse pneumatiche, e poi messe a fermentare e affinare in vasche di acciaio inox a temperatura controllata.

Il nome Federspiel deriva dalla falconeria, da sempre molto popolare nel territorio Wachau; il simbolo del falco vuole rappresentare l'eleganza di questi vini bianchi secchi.

Si presenta al calice con un colore giallo verdolino con riflessi dorati. All'olfatto offre delicati aromi di frutta a nocciolo, abbinati a sentori di frutta esotica
tipici del vitigno. Un sorso fine ed elegante, che offre profondità, fermezza e il giusto grado di acidità al palato.

Un Rieslig ben strutturato come da manuale, che con la sua acidità piccante, ben si abbina di certo ai piatti della cucina austriaca, oltre a portate a base di pesce e sushi, ed anche a formaggi di carpa o pecora.

The winery Domäne Wachau

Winery history

The estate's origins are documented as far back as the Middle Ages. The historic complex and the vineyards passed over time to several noble families; after the transfer of parcels from the Starhemberg to local growers, the site developed into a growers' cooperative. In the 20th century the cooperative adopted various names and has operated as Domäne Wachau since the late 2000s; the organization brings together hundreds of member-growers who cultivate the steep terraces of the Wachau.

Production philosophy

Craftsmanship, respect for the terroir and precision in the vineyard and cellar: Domäne Wachau emphasizes the grapes' inherent quality, agricultural practices focused on biodiversity and soil health, and low-intervention winemaking. The estate has undertaken sustainability and certification initiatives and promotes ongoing training for its growers.

Terroir and vineyards

Wachau Valley, on the steep terraces along the Danube around Dürnstein. The grapes come from numerous renowned Rieden/contrade of the Wachau, including Achleiten, Loibenberg, Kellerberg, Axpoint, Tausendeimerberg and other exposures typical of the valley's gneiss cliffs.

Awards and recognitions

Public highlights include awards in national competitions and international mentions; historically cited as "International Winery of the Year" by Wine & Spirit and included in Forbes World's 50 Best Wineries.
