Riesling Urgestein 2020

WINERY NIGL

The wine estate Nigl Hotel and Restaurant, is located in the Kremstal. Picturesque at the foot of the Senftenberg church hill. The former reading farm of Prince Starhemberg dates back to the 12th century and is used as a winery.
The main focus in the Kremstal vineyards are Grüner Veltliner and Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and Muskateller round out the wine assortment. Blauer Zweigelt and Merlot are cultivated in the chalky Krems loess sites, Pinot Noir finds optimal conditions in the Pfenningberg vineyard, a very steep mica slate site.

"The winemaker tries to orient himself in a complex environment of geology, microclimate and cosmic influences. The sundial and the compass as the main symbol for the logo of the traditional wineries count great role." - Martin Nigl
