Description
Weissburgunder: this will probably ring a bell for many of us. Where do we know this refined grape from? It seems incredibly familiar (especially when we opened Stift Kloster Neuburg Weissburgunder). Weissburgunder made waves in Alsace but in recent years, via Germany, has been increasingly moving eastward. However, most wine drinkers will know this elegant grape by its French name: Pinot Blanc. A noble grape variety in Alsace, yet still relatively new to Austrian vineyards. The courage, daring, and creativity of Stift Kloster Neuburg have ensured that this grape is also clearly gaining a foothold in Viennese vineyards.
