ZÖBINGER HEILIGENSTEIN - RIESLING
Rieden Gaisberg & Heiligenstein: Both hills are facing south towards the plain of the joining rivers Kamp and Danube, their vineyards are all terraced, protected by hill-top forests in addition.
The meaning of Heiligenstein has developed curiously over time from "hell's rock": most likely because of the great summer heat here, to today's "rock of saints": certainly because of the venerable wines originating here. In geological terms Heiligenstein is also something special: a cone of primeval rock which had pushed through the surrounding area. The top soil consists of weathered crystalline rock, volcanic and desert sands that provides a fine mixture of minerals to the vines and, in addition, accumulates heat till long. The sun-loaden site and the specific terroir offer the ideal conditions for Schloss Gobelsburg's Riesling and Pinot Noir.
Zöbinger Heiligenstein Riesling is an elegant wine finely chiselled with finesse and great length.
