Cabernet Sauvignon

CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2021

Wine-Description:
Dark ruby garnet, seductive aroma of blackberries and cassis on the nose. Juicy on the palate, fleshy texture with present tannins. The well-integrated acidity gives this powerful wine freshness. Dark berry nuances, vanilla and fine roasted aromas on the long finish.

On the variety and origins of this wine:
Tattendorf in the Lower Austrian Thermenregion has some of the best red wine sites in Austria. Cabernet Sauvignon thrives on the shallow limestone gravel soils with brown earth of our “Stiftsbreite” vineyard.

Wine Estate of Klosterneuburg Abbey:
Since its foundation in 1114 Klosterneuburg Abbey has been growing wine and therefore is the oldest wine estate of Austria. With 108 Hectares of vineyards it is one of the country‘s largest and most renowned estates. The vineyards are situated in selected top locations in Klosterneuburg, Vienna, Gumpoldskirchen and Tattendorf.

Since the year 2009 it is the first carbon neutral wine estate in Europe.

Collection:
What makes our single-vineyard wines stand out is the particular choice of hand-picked grapes. The wine is made from grapes grown in individual vine-yards with a long tradition, and the Stift Klosterneuburg Wine Estate has been cultivating some of the individual sites for centuries. A highly selective and target-ed harvest ensures the ripest of grapes, while the process of ageing the wines – done partly in small wooden casks – guarantees that they can be stored for several years while maintaining their high quality.
