The Bergkloster estate has been in the family for five generations, now tended by Jason who has been studying winemaking since 2013.. The mountainous vineyards cover around 8 hectares in Westholfen, growing from limestone and clay-marl substrate. Despite the risk, Jason prefers to depend almost entirely on nature during the growing period, harnessing the wind and landscape just as the Roman's once did in the area. Steeper slopes allow the sun to shine directly onto the grapes, resulting in full, fruit-forward wines. Grapes are hand-picked and wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation without fining or filtration. Hauswein NV is a blend of direct-press Riesling and Weissburgunder. The cuvée is an ode to wines traditionally bottled for the people working in the winery and the vineyards to enjoy after a day of harvest. Clean and fresh with electric acidity and yellow fruit notes. Hauswein NV would pair well with Schnitzel and Kartoffelsalat.
