Nigl Gruner Veltliner Freiheit Krems 2018 750 ML

Weingut Nigl, tucked deep in the Krems Valley on the edge of the Senftenberg mountain, often evokes feelings that one has travelled back to medieval times; the wines Martin Nigl creates are as ethereal as the vine lands that they come from. The ruins of the Senftenberg castle, erected in 1197, are perched above the terraced vineyards Hochacker, Pellingen, Piri, and Kirchenberg. These terroirs of primary rock, or gneiss, planted to riesling and gruner veltliner, have much more in common with the

Wachau than with the rest of the Kremstal. In fact, the border between the Wachau, to the west is political, and the geology is much more similar to the famous sites in that region.
