Notes from the producer:

Tasting notes: Inspired by the field blends (Gemischter Satz wines) of Vienna, we created Brother Nature. Our wine is an authentic Field Blend, where 12 different white varieties are interplanted within a single vineyard block at Hahndorf Hill. The intimacy of these 12 different varieties growing together allows them to influence one another, thereby harmonising the development and ripening trajectory of this multi-cultural block.

Ultimately, this true Field Blend process has no focus on a single grape variety, but instead showcases this vineyard's unique terroir, in the bottle. On a single, pre-determined day, all the co-grown fruit is co-harvested by hand, and then co-fermented in the winery. This blend is therefore truly made within the field, and not in the winery.
The classic Gemischter Satz wines of Austria commonly have between five to twenty different varieties in the field blend, with three different varieties being the bare minimum required.

Brother Nature's 12 different varieties include all of the standard white varieties commonly found in any Gemischter Satz in Austria, such as Pinot Blanc, Welschriesling, Gruner Veltliner, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Gewurztraminer, Traminer (Savagnin) and Muscat Blanc, and also includes some other interesting varieties such as Harslevelu , Chenin Blanc and Muscadelle.

This scintillating, fresh wine, with its glittering core of minerality, features a juicy, luminous, natural acidity that illuminates its entire length. Crunchy lime zest, baked apple and gentle texture swirl within this racy whirlpool. Pair deliciously with shellfish, crab, pork, spicy Indian cuisine, raw & cured fish, creamy sauces, and South East Asian-style salads.
