Citrus fruit (lemonade, tangerine, pomelo, orange peel), stone fruit (peach/pome), with hints of minerality, peach pit, and honeyed pear.

On the palate, it shows medium acidity, low alcohol (~12.5%), and distinctive tannic structure—dry, light-bodied but textured.

Versatile pairing with grilled chicken, fish, shellfish, spicy or aromatic dishes, Asian cuisine, vegetables, and mild cheeses.

Christina Netzl's journey into natural winemaking began at the tender age of 5, tending to her family's farm and vineyard alongside her parents and grandparents. With time, her parents redirected the family business solely towards grape cultivation and winemaking, expanding it to encompass the 28 hectares they currently operate in the Carnuntum winemaking region, situated just east of Vienna and north of the Neusidler See. Christina pursued studies in oenology and wine management in London, immersing herself in diverse wine styles from around the globe. Upon her return to the winery in 2007, she collaborated with her parents, later fostering a fervent commitment to organic viticulture, particularly after becoming a mother of two.
