MA Arndorfer Mitges

Aromas of ripe golden plums and apricots, soft and velvety in the mouth with a hint of lees spice on the finish.

Producer Information

Martin started to produce his first vintage in 2002 after practical training in Italy and being inspired by the complexity and diversity in wine. He got the chance to choose the vineyards he wanted to work with on his parents’ estate, namely, ones with old vines and on the best hills of his village.

Anna joined him in 2009 and in 2012 they took over the winery from his parents and now manage 16ha in total. They believe that nature is the strongest force and that the soil is the most intelligent part. They believe that the plants nourish the soil and they adopt a totally minimal intervention approach.

Wine Making

The grapes were manually harvested, whole bunch pressed and fermented on the skins in stainless steel tanks for 10-30 days. Fermented using indigenous yeasts in both foudre and small barrels with malolactic taking place. Bottled unfined, unfiltered and with a tiny amount SO2.

Tasting Note

Aromas of ripe golden plums and apricots, soft and velvety in the mouth with a hint of lees spice on the finish.

Food Matching

Perfect with roast pork and apple sauce.
