WINE_ We, the Treasure Hunters, discovered this great orange wine the last time we visited Georg's winery. Georg recently became interested in PiWi varieties. Due to the climate change, natural wine production is at risk every year and experimenting with hybrids, which are more resistant to illnesses, has raised interest in some natural wine producers. This orange wine is a result of an experimental PIWI grape variety.

TASTE_ It is surprisingly light (only 10.5% of alcohol), it has some aromas of apricot, peach and grapefruit . There is a lovely creaminess and a nice zesty aftertaste!

LABEL_ There is a little cottage next to the winery where Georg stores all his biodynamic secrets: natural mixtures, dry herbs of all kind, crystals and a map of all his vineyards. It is a magical, mystical place. As treasure hunters, we knew we would discover something great at this winery! Label designed by Matthias Bergsmann, a talented artist from Salzburg.
