Alexander Zahel, Gemischter Satz, Vienna, Austria 2022 1.5L
The famous field blend grown within city limits of Vienna, the six grapes of this Gemischter Satz (Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, Pinot Gris, Traminer, and Chardonnay) are grown on limestone and sandstone terraces at 330 meters overlooking downtown Vienna. Grown together and then picked on the same day, this electric white is then co-fermented dry using only native, wild yeasts.
The Zahel family was the first to ever bottle Gemischter Satz in the 1930s, capturing the spirit of Vienna’s local wine taverns (Heurigers) which began when Emperor Joseph II's ordinance of 1784 allowed Austrians to sell home-made food, wine, and the convivial spirit of Viennese Gemütlichkeit (warmth, friendliness, and good cheer).
Vienna’s Gemischter Satz is one of only 300 products worldwide that SlowFood awarded its Ark of Taste award, created to protect high-quality and traditionally produced foods for future generations in the face of industrialized agriculture and big business.
