Product details
The Schmelzer Sämling Orange is a masterpiece of biodynamic winemaking from Gols in Burgenland. This wine, a product of careful craftsmanship and dedication, embodies the purity and authenticity of winemaking. With an alcohol content of 13% and a remarkable aging potential of 10 to 15 years, this wine is a true gem for connoisseurs and wine lovers.
The color of the wine is a deep, fascinating orange reminiscent of the warm tones of a sunset. This visual impression is achieved through the traditional method of maceration, where the grape skins remain in contact with the juice for three to four weeks. The result is an intense aroma profile that impresses both on the nose and the palate. In the nose, the Schmelzer Sämling Orange reveals a complex bouquet. Notes of ripe, yellow fruits blend with a hint of exotic spices and a subtle earthy undertone. On the palate, the wine presents itself surprisingly fresh. The natural acidity structure balances the rich fruit flavors, providing a lively, dynamic taste experience. The texture of the wine is remarkable. By using the free-run juice method and maturing it in small wooden barrels, the wine gains depth and complexity without losing its freshness. The finish is long and sustainable, leaving a lasting impression and inviting further enjoyment. |

Georg Schmelzer: Master of Biodynamics and Nature Connection |
Georg Schmelzer, recognized as Austria's expert in biodynamic winemaking, represents the fourth generation in a family dedicated to winemaking, following the principles of biodynamic farming by Rudolf Steiner. His approach goes beyond the Demeter classification, as he not only refrains from using pesticides and herbicides but also promotes healthy soil in harmony with nature.
Georg Schmelzer is known for respecting and preserving nature. He employs innovative methods such as the use of crystals and mountain quartz, as well as various plant infusions, to promote the health of his vines. Flowers between the vines attract bees that aid in pollination, contributing to a vibrant ecosystem. At his winery by Lake Neusiedl, Georg focuses on four main grape varieties: Welschriesling and Weißburgunder for white wines, and Zweigelt and Cabernet Sauvignon for red wines. He experiments with amphorae, ages red wine in barrels, and applies malolactic fermentation. His wines are made without fining and filtration, and in most cases, he avoids the addition of sulfites. Georg's wines are an expression of his philosophy and deep respect for nature. They reflect the authenticity and terroir of his surroundings and offer an unparalleled taste experience. |
