Grauburgunder 2023 Burgenland Golberg Georg Preisinger

Viticulture has been the focus of the Preisinger family for five generations.

What began in 1851 as mixed farming with animal husbandry has developed over generations into today’s winery.

The rocket is a carefully chosen symbol for their wines.

It stands for the journey through time that becomes possible through the enjoyment of strong charactered wines: the immersion into a past year, the taste structure of the past handed down through time to the present.

But also, the overcoming of distances – which good wine masters so well!

Pinot Gris has been grown at Preisinger since 1980 and there was a mix-up: Georg Preisinger Senior actually ordered “Frühlinger Veltliner” vines at the time, but Pinot Gris was delivered.

In the first few years, this vineyard was used almost exclusively for the production of Prädikatswein, until the senior winemaker recognized the high quality of this strong, dry wine.

Pinot Gris is one of the most important white wines at Preisinger, with which they have already received a number of awards.

Its subtle aroma and creaminess make it a perfect accompaniment to food.

This is a medium golden yellow colour with notes of ripe yellow pears, a hint of blossom honey, a hint of dried banana, herbs and anise.

Juicy, yellow stone fruit, a fine acid structure & a subtle fruit sweetness combine for an elegant finish.
