Weingut Malat, a family-owned estate with over 300 years of winemaking history, is situated in the Kremstal region of Austria. Under the guidance of Michael Malat, the winery combines tradition with innovation, producing wines that reflect the unique terroir of their vineyards.
- WINEMAKER: Michael Malat
- FARMING: Practicing organic viticulture; not certified
- VARIETY: Blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir
- TERROIR: Sourced from vineyards in Niederösterreich, characterized by primary rock and loess soils, contributing to the wine's minerality and complexity.
- VINIFICATION: Hand-harvested grapes undergo gentle pressing. Fermentation occurs with native yeasts, followed by secondary fermentation in the bottle using the traditional méthode champenoise.
- AGING: Aged on the lees in the bottle for four years, enhancing texture and depth before disgorgement.
- TASTING NOTES: Bright straw yellow with silver reflections and a lively, delicate mousse. Aromas of fresh orange zest, biscuit, floral nuances, and a hint of peach. The palate is medium-bodied with white apple fruit, fine acidity, and a mineral-salty character, leading to a complex, food-friendly finish.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: Ideal with seafood dishes, light salads, or as an aperitif. Its bright acidity and minerality also complement creamy cheeses and charcuterie.
