Schödl Family - Blanc de Blanc NV

(Weinviertel, Austria)

As far as Traditional Method sparkling wines go, this is up there with one of our favourites. This very mildly oxidative style of sparkling is rich, generous yet has a mineral streak and tension that keeps it wildly exciting. Serious stuff. 

Made by the Schödl siblings Viktoria, Mathias and Leonhard, who took over a family estate, converted it to biodynamics, changed the style completely and are now one of very few producers rewriting the story of the Weinviertel with world class wines.
