We silently looked at each other as soon as we tried the Naked White - Weingut Heinrich and started nodding condescendingly. We loved its fresh and fruity character, floral spring aromas, and refreshing acidity. If we also comment on its price, this is the most value-for-money white you will enjoy daily!
Gernot and Heike Heinrich 1985 decided to dedicate themselves to the production of quality and representative wines of the region and took over the Gernot family winery in 1985. They believed in the peaceful symbiosis of the vines, with the complex but perfectly healthy ecosystem in which they live. The vineyards are located on both sides of Lake Neusiedl, with a diversity of soil composition. Today they produce natural wines with the least possible intervention, from the vine to the bottling.
For Naked White - Weingut Heinrich the grapes are picked from both sides of the lake. The harvest is done manually and makes a mosaic of many varieties with Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc taking the lead. While the varieties Welschriesling, Grüner Veltliner, Neuburger, Muskat Ottonel, Pinot Gris, and Roter Traminer, make the team unbeatable! By soaking them overnight, the aromas are enhanced and then spontaneous fermentation of the whole bunches with natural yeasts begins. This is followed by malolactic fermentation and aging, over a year, on natural lees in large wooden barrels. It is bottled unfiltered with minimal use of sulfites.
Naked White is a completely natural and very tasty blend that is in perfect harmony with nature. This party of flavors and senses is easily enjoyed alone, but if you put it on the table it will become the best ally of the juicy burger, the variety of cheeses, and the seafood dish.
