Weingut Weixelbaum, Strass, Kamptal - Anno Dazumal Gruner Veltliner Wine
New in our line of premium white wines. Heinz Weixelbaum releases his Grüner Veltliner Dazumal only in exceptional years. The grapes are hand harvested and selected from over 60 year old vines in the Offenberg vineyard at the bottom of the famous Gaisberg. The wine ferments and is left on its fine lees in small 500l barriques before ageing in larger oak barrels for an exceptional further 18 months to create an exceptional Gruner Veltliner Wine.
Ripe and elegant, tropical fruit, apricot and almonds, complex and long finish. This exceptional wine will age well and it benefits from decanting.
Anno Dazumal means 'like in the old days' referring to its long fermentation and ageing periods, 'Giving it time to ripen and develop' as Heinz says.
Goes well with: Roast chicken, pork loin
ABV: 14%
About Weixelbaum
The Weixelbaum family has been making wine in Strass im Strassertal, Kamptal, for three generations — 30 hectares of vineyards and 130,000 vines, with a focus on whites complemented by a small selection of reds. Their oldest bottles in the family wine library date back to 1967, including Grüner Veltliners from 1983 and 1986 made by Heinz Weixelbaum's father Heinrich.
They farm holistically and organically. Chamomile, mustard, fennel, phacelia and clover are sown each year to feed bees and other insects, and "Weixelbaum Insect Hotel Group" shelters sit in every vineyard. Manual labour in the vines and meticulous, gravity-driven processing in the cellar — grapes free-falling into barrel for settling — are central to how the wine is made. Wood, the right barrel, and time: these are the cellar's most important tools.
Looking forward, the next generation is already in the conversation: children Theresa and Pauli sit on the family council, discussing which grape varieties to plant. Loyal customers stretch from Vienna to Los Angeles, drawn by hospitality, good humour, and a down-to-earth love of wine.
