            [Notes2] => Located in the Kremstal region, the Malat Estate sits on the hillside of Gottweiger Berg where the vineyards benefit from a microclimate regulated by the Danube River, with hot days and cool nights. The soil composition is loess, gravel and primary rock. The Pinot Noir comes from 10-50 year old vines around the village of Palt on a soil composition of lime rich loess, clay and Danube gravel. The farming is organic and the grapes are harvested by hand.

The flat-lying vineyard site is located at the foot of the Göttweig mountain, on an ancient terrace of the Danube River. The name relates to the word ‘Goetschen’ from the Salzburg region, which refers to sharp rocky projections on a mountain ridge. There is such a projection in the Gottschelle area, falling away steeply down towards the road to the village of Steinaweg. The vineyard was first documented (in 1341) as ‘Gotschalich’. The sandy-silty soils are derived from the underlying, highly calcareous, loess. The thick covering of loess was deposited over several stages of the Ice Age, as indicated by the intervening layers of gravel and ancient soils that are exposed in the ravine below the vineyard.

Winemaker Michael Malat, believes in the natural purity of wine, thereby not changing the profile of the grape. He uses no irrigation, planting his vines intensively, minerality coming from the terroir. He uses no Botrytis, and if present he will take it out. Natural fermentation needs cloudiness, nutrients and yeasts; you can’t do this with botrytis. An abundance of small tanks in the winery, allow all blocks to be fermented separately. Michael reckons Pinot Noir, Riesling and Chardonnay are the varietal that will thrive in future years, climate change being an important factor

His son, Michael Malat, now manages the business. The Malats understand how to play the entire repertoire to perfection - all the way through from light white wines to the elegant red wines. Austria`s first sparkling wines, Malat Brut and Malat Brut Rosé, have been made at the winery by the traditional method since 1976. Perfection continues to be the guiding principle of the Malat winery - and has been for many generations."

"Gerald Malat is without doubt one of the best-known winemaking personalities in the country, not least of course due to the outstanding qualities of his wines. His son, Michael Malat, now manages the business. The Malats understand how to play the entire repertoire to perfection - all the way through from light white wines to the elegant red wines. Austria`s first sparkling wines, Malat Brut and Malat Brut Rosé, have been made at the winery by the traditional method since 1976. Perfection continues to be the guiding principle of the Malat winery - and has been for many generations."

About this product +

Producer >

Dating from 1722, with vineyards in the regions of Kremstal and Wachau.Winemaker Michael Malat, believes in the natural purity of wine, thereby not changing the profile of the grape. He uses no irrigation, planting his vines intensively, minerality coming from the terroir. He uses no Botrytis, and if present he will take it out. Natural fermentation needs cloudiness, nutrients and yeasts; you can’t do this with botrytis. An abundance of small tanks in the winery, allow all blocks to be fermented separately. Michael reckons Pinot Noir, Riesling and Chardonnay are the varietal that will thrive in future years, climate change being an important factor.

Viticulture >

Located in the Kremstal region, the Malat Estate sits on the hillside of Gottweiger Berg where the vineyards benefit from a microclimate regulated by the Danube River, with hot days and cool nights. The soil composition is loess, gravel and primary rock. The Pinot Noir comes from 10-50 year old vines around the village of Palt on a soil composition of lime rich loess, clay and Danube gravel. The farming is organic and the grapes are harvested by hand.

Harvest handpicked Fermentation spontaneous large wooden barrel | used barrel Maturing large wooden barrel | used barrel The flat-lying vineyard site is located at the foot of the Göttweig mountain, on an ancient terrace of the Danube River. The name relates to the word ‘Goetschen’ from the Salzburg region, which refers to sharp rocky projections on a mountain ridge. There is such a projection in the Gottschelle area, falling away steeply down towards the road to the village of Steinaweg. The vineyard was first documented (in 1341) as ‘Gotschalich’. The sandy-silty soils are derived from the underlying, highly calcareous, loess. The thick covering of loess was deposited over several stages of the Ice Age, as indicated by the intervening layers of gravel and ancient soils that are exposed in the ravine below the vineyard.
