Tement Morillon Ried Sulz Suedsteiermark DAC 2022 13% Vol. 0,75l

The Tement Morillon Ried Sulz Suedsteiermark DAC 2022 comes from a distinctive south-southwest-facing basin site, which offers a particularly warm microclimate due to its closed shape. Ried Sulz is one of the winery's most important sites and is considered an ideal location for Burgundian varieties such as Morillon due to its structure. The site is characterized by blue and brown limestone marl, a slope inclination of 45 percent and an orientation of 150° SE to 220° SW at 430-472 metres above sea level. The interplay of these factors creates optimal conditions for vines with a high degree of ripeness; the vines in this vineyard are 29 years old. After natural spontaneous fermentation, the wine matures for 30 months on the fine lees in small French oak barrels (228 liters) and is then bottled unfiltered. A natural cork serves as a classic closure. The ideal drinking age is between 2026 and 2046, which underlines the remarkable development potential of this bottling.

The origin from the powerful Kessel vineyard and the long yeast maturation give this Morillon Suedsteiermark DAC a clear structure and the Burgundian elegance that is characteristic of the Ried Sulz. The combination of specific terroir, old vines and precise, minimally invasive vinification results in a wine with pronounced site typicity and a fine, focused style. The unfiltered bottling enhances the authentic expression and underlines the Tement winery's philosophy of creating wines of origin, depth and exceptional longevity. In culinary terms, the 2022 vintage proves to be a versatile, structured companion that convincingly complements both full-bodied dishes and finely composed meals.
