The Wohlmuth Sauvignon Blanc Edelschuh is a wine with a unique, unmistakable character; it is incredibly dense and finely woven, elegant and mineral, and possesses a great arc of tension. Here, the brilliant interplay of grape variety, soil, location and winemaker's craft, which has a 200-year-old tradition at the Wohlmuths, is revealed in its full glory.

The vines are between 30-50 years old. Wines with a very delicate acid structure and high extract density are produced from this warm site. The historic site is so steep that it can only be cultivated by hand, sometimes only with the help of a winch. At the upper edge of the barren Riede Edelschuh, which is completely south-facing, there is a visible slate wall.

The grape variety originated from a cross between Traminer and Chenin Blanc and originally comes from the Loire. It has small, densely packed berries. Its strong growth requires good canopy management, as its aromatic compounds, methoxypyrazines and mercaptans, are light-sensitive. Its characteristic bouquet ranges from grassy, green fruit and notes of bell pepper in not fully ripe grapes to an expressive aromatic diversity of elderflower, gooseberries, cassis, and tropical fruits such as passion fruit in ripe harvested grapes.

The landscape is therefore rougher, which is reflected around the village of Kitzeck not only in impressively steep vineyards with direct access but also in numerous terraced systems. The difference from the highest point of the hills to the valley floor is usually over 200 meters and is also evident in the particular steepness of the vineyards.

The landscape is therefore rougher, which is reflected around the village of Kitzeck not only in impressively steep vineyards with direct access but also in numerous terraced systems. The difference from the highest point of the hills to the valley floor is usually over 200 meters and is also reflected in the particular steepness of the vineyards.

This slate is thinly layered, sometimes a little more compact with inclusions of quartz, sericite, and potassium feldspar. Under the influence of the Illyrian climate, which brings warm winds from the Mediterranean and cool winds from the northern Alps to Kitzeck in Southern Styria, and with a great deal of manual labor on the steep slopes, which requires an admirable connection to home, this dry white wine with its unmistakable, complex fruit expression is created.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll grapes are selectively hand-picked very late. Since the vineyards are located around the winery, there are no long transport routes. After 8-16 hours of maceration, pressing is gentle and slow. Spontaneous fermentation takes place in large, used wooden barrels, as does the 7-month maturation on fine lees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven though the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety does not yet have such a long tradition in Styria, it has found a place there where it finds optimal conditions and produces wines of international stature. The grape variety originated from a cross between Traminer and Chenin Blanc and originally comes from the Loire. It has small, densely packed berries. Its vigorous growth requires good canopy management, as its aromatic compounds, methoxypyrazines and mercaptans, are light-sensitive. Its characteristic bouquet ranges from grassy, green-fruited, and bell pepper notes in not fully ripe grapes to an expressive aromatic diversity of elderflower, gooseberries, cassis, and tropical fruits such as passion fruit in ripe harvested grapes. In Styria, great premium wines with great development potential are produced, which are among the best worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sauvignon Blanc Kitzeck-Sausal is a classic village wine exclusively from grapes around Kitzeck in Southern Styria. The Kitzeck-Sausal appellation within Southern Styria is a geological peculiarity, as the soils are much older than in the rest of Southern Styria and were formed over 400 million years ago with the Central Alps. The landscape is therefore rougher, which around Kitzeck is reflected not only in impressively steep vineyards with direct access but also in numerous terraced systems. The difference from the highest point of the hills to the valley floor is usually over 200 meters and is also evident in the particular steepness of the vineyards. The vineyards are mostly located at altitudes of 380 to 650 meters, which contributes to good ventilation of the vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2022 vintage is accompanied by a painting by Laura Stadtegger, who sees the characteristic of her paintings in the movement between the real and imaginary world. Fascinated by myths and archetypes, she sees her art as messages that concern people worldwide. The artist, originally from Graz, born in 1984, completed her studies in applied art at the University of Vienna, with a year abroad at the School of Visual Arts in New York. She then lived in Amsterdam for a while before moving her studio to Munich in 2011.

A wine with a medium body, subtle extract sweetness, and a finely nuanced acidity. The striking slate spice, a wonderfully cool minerality, finesse, and precision, is always present. The Wohlmuth Sauvignon Blanc Edelschuh is a wine with a unique, unmistakable character; it is immensely dense and fine-meshed, elegant and mineral, and possesses a great arc of tension as well as excellent length. Here, the ingenious interplay of grape variety, soil, location, and winemaking craftsmanship, which has a 200-year-old tradition at Wohlmuth's, is shown in its full glory.

The vineyard is located at 460-530m above sea level and is extremely steep with a 73-90% gradient. The soils consist of Paleozoic, red and blue-black, quartzite-rich slate. The vines are between 30-50 years old. Wines with a very delicate acid structure and high extract density are produced from this warm site. The historic site is so steep that it can only be cultivated by hand, sometimes only with the help of a winch. At the upper edge of the barren Riede Edelschuh, which is completely south-facing, lies a visible slate wall. With the 2018 vintage, this special site, which produces complex wines of pronounced minerality and elegance, was classified as the first STK (Styrian Classic).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes for this Wohlmuth Sauvignon Blanc Edelschuh are harvested very late with selective hand-picking. A short maceration time and a very slow and gentle pressing, as well as spontaneous fermentation in 500l used wooden barrels, preserve fragrance and fruit. The subsequent maturation on the fine lees for more than 12 months ensures a full mouthfeel and a delicate creaminess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2022 vintage is accompanied by a painting by Laura Stadtegger, who sees the characteristic of her images in the movement between the real and imaginary world.
