ABOUT THIS WINE
The HajszanNeumann Natural Wiener Gemischter Satz 2021 is a white wine from Vienna, Austria, classified as a Wiener Gemischter Satz DAC. This wine is distinguished by its 'Natural' winemaking approach, which involves minimal intervention in the cellar. It is a field blend, meaning at least ten different grape varieties are planted in the same vineyard, harvested together, and fermented as a single lot. This practice is a tradition in Viennese viticulture. Weingut Hajszan Neumann has been committed to biodynamic farming since 2006, emphasizing healthy vines, living soils, and biodiversity. The estate is managed with a philosophy that encourages wines to be lively, original, and possess distinct character. The 2021 vintage was marked by challenging weather conditions, including a late start to the harvest and a hailstorm, but resulted in grapes with good concentration and acidity.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The HajszanNeumann Natural Wiener Gemischter Satz 2021 is produced using a field blend of at least ten grape varieties, which are planted, harvested, and fermented together. The grapes are hand-picked. For the 'Natural' designation, winemaking involves minimal intervention. This includes native yeast fermentation, often with skin maceration or mash fermentation, followed by cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine undergoes a short period of aging on fine lees in stainless steel tanks before being bottled unfiltered. The winery is committed to biodynamic farming practices, emphasizing soil health and biodiversity. Some 'Natural' series wines may also utilize fermentation in amphorae or concrete eggs.
