This Gemischter Satz is named Kosmopolit as it comes from five sites on both sides of the Danube. The grapes are picked on the same day by two teams, each consisting of approximately ten to twelve people. In the evening, all of the grapes go into the press together and the next day after roughly twelve hours of maceration, everything is pressed. That’s the Kosmopolit. A true Gemischter Satz. Nectarine, very clean and fresh. White flowers.
Jutta Ambrositsch tends a modest 4 hectares of vines from around 10 different small parcels within the city limits of Vienna. Continuing a longtime Viennese tradition, she produces several Gemischter Satz wines, which are white blends from local grapes. The 2019 Kosmopolit is lovely, subtly floral with a touch of density fresh pineapple, and nectarine. A real treat and a great white! For those interested, the wine is truly a Gemischter Satz with dozens of varieties from several sites, all harvested on the same day by two different teams, and co-fermented. Here's the rundown of info on the parcels:
a) Stammersdorf (young vines): Grüner Veltliner, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Chardonnay
b) Sievering (young vines): ten rare, old varieties, planted seven years ago.
c) Preußen: 25% Riesling, 25% Zierfandler, 25% Welschriesling and 25% mixed varieties.
d) Mukenthal (old vines): ten rare, old varieties, planted in 1970.
e) Plagen: many different types of Veltliner (Grüner, Roter, Frühroter, Brauner,...) a very steep site surrounded by forest.
