FAMILIE<br />

BAUER<br />

ORGANIC<br />

Many years of great dedication to sustainable<br />

viticulture has finally led this<br />

vintner family to certified organic wine<br />

production. Family Bauer makes particularly<br />

meticulous efforts in maintaining long term soil<br />

vitality, promoting the natural disease resistance<br />

of vines, and creating an optimal habitat for beneficial<br />

insects. This enterprise views Grüner Veltliner<br />

not just as a grape variety, but also as a<br />

partner. It is bottled in four different variations,<br />

not including ice wine. Family Bauer also specialises<br />

in Roter Veltliner, a variety that is listed in<br />

Slow Food’s “Arch of Taste” as an endangered<br />

cultivar. The Burgundian varieties, which are<br />

planted on lime-rich Wagram loess, should also<br />

not be missed. The Blauburgunder Eiswein (Pinot<br />

Noir ice wine) is a “must have” rarity in the<br />

Bauer assortment this year. The family’s motto<br />

gives a clear message to wine lovers: “Our wines<br />

should fulfil their original intention and be<br />

drunk with joy. <strong>Wine</strong> should be fun!”<br />

92 Weißburgunder Ried Eisenhut<br />

Reserve 2015<br />

Pale green-yellow with silver highlights. Inviting floral fragrance<br />

with delicate pear, subtle blossom honey, wild herbs<br />

and a touch of hazelnut. Good complexity with very juicy acidity<br />

nicely lifting sweet pineapple fruit all the way through the<br />

finish. A highly individual accompaniment to food.<br />
