⭐️87/100⭐️ 𝑴𝒂𝒔𝒌𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒅𝒆 (𝑾𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒔), 2020 📍Oggau am Neusiedler See, Burgenland, Austria🇦🇹 🍇 Field blend (should contain a lot of: Grüner Veltliner, Weissburgunder & Welschriesling) ⚡️11,5 % Tasted: April 2021 Gut Oggau is a biodynamic wine project located in the small village of Oggau in Burgenland. Eduard and Stephanie Tscheppe began the project back in 2007, when they bought and restored a 17th century winery, that had been abandoned for more than 20 years - vineyards included. The vines were standing untouched as long as the winery, which was perfect, as that allowed the Tscheppes to immediately begin working biodynamically with their viticulture. Today, they are fully Demeter-certified and one of the most well known austrian natural wineries. One of the newer family members; first vintage in 2018 from newly purchased vineyards (not Demeter certified yet, hence the name “Maskerade”, but still biodynamically cultivated). The grapes are hand-harvested and destemmed. 
Fermented with a few hours maceration in used 1000 and 1500-liter barrels (elevage in the same barrels for about 8 months with no batonnage). 
Bottled unfined, unfiltered, and with zero addition of sulfur. Sick color first of all..! The aromas are heavy and very expressive from the beginning with notes of mirabelle plum, apple juice, acacia honey, wet wood, elderflower juice, peach skin, dried apricot, yeast and sage. The palate is rich and creamy with very low, but still slightly prickling, acidity offering nectarine, ripe pear, dried apricot, honey, tangerine and a hint of white pepper in the finish.
