“A stunningly pure, finely textured Riesling from one of Austria’s most historic estates — graceful power and crystalline focus from the legendary Gaisberg vineyard.”

Tasting Notes

Appearance: Pale lemon-gold with silver glints — luminous and clear.
Aroma: Fresh lime, white peach, and orange blossom, lifted by flinty minerality and hints of jasmine and wet stone.
Palate: Sleek and poised. Juicy citrus and stone fruit glide across a taut line of acidity and chalky minerality. Silky texture adds quiet depth and precision.
Finish: Long, saline, and perfectly balanced — echoing lime, herbs, and a touch of crushed rock.

  “Brilliant focus and balance. Citrus and white-peach aromas framed by stony minerality. Linear, polished, and persistent — a textbook expression of Kamptal.”

Vineyard & Winemaking

The Ried Gaisberg Vineyard is one of Kamptal’s great crus — a steep, south-facing site of mica-schist and gneiss, producing Rieslings of finesse, energy, and longevity.

At Schloss Gobelsburg, tradition and precision define the approach:

• Hand-harvested fruit from organically farmed old vines

• Whole-bunch pressing for delicacy and clarity

• Fermentation in large neutral oak casks to maintain texture

• Extended lees contact for length and depth

The result is a Riesling that captures the vibrant mineral core of Gaisberg while showing the finesse and calm authority that characterise all Schloss Gobelsburg wines.
