Muskat Bambule – Unique Orange Wine

Judith Beck relies on biodynamic cultivation of her vineyards. She has been working according to these principles since 2006, which is reflected in the quality of her wines. Vines grow on gravel and loamy soils with lime content. These soils give the grapes a special minerality. The Pannonian climate with its hot summers and cold winters ensures optimal ripening. This creates wines that are elegant and expressive. »Judith Beck Muskat Bambule 2018 Bio« is an example of this philosophy.

Grape Variety Muskat Ottonel

Muskat Ottonel is an old grape variety with an intense aroma. It is known for its floral and fruity notes. In the »Muskat Bambule«, the aroma unfolds in all its glory. The grapes come from old vines near Lake Neusiedl. To extract the full aroma, they remain on the skins for 10 to 12 days. This so-called mash fermentation is an essential part of the production. It gives the wine a special structure and depth.

This wine is a so-called Orange Wine. This means it is not fermented like classic white wines. Instead, the mash remains in contact with the skins during fermentation. This releases tannins, which give the wine a pleasant structure. Fermentation takes place spontaneously, i.e. without the addition of cultured yeasts. This allows the wine to develop its individual character. After fermentation, the wine matures on full lees for seven months. Afterwards, it is bottled unfiltered and without added sulphur.

Taste and Harmony

This dry wine pairs wonderfully with various dishes. It goes particularly well with Asian cuisine, such as spicy curries or sushi. It is also an excellent accompaniment to grilled fish or poultry. But it can also be enjoyed pure, as an apéritif or with light cheeses. The wine is still relatively young and benefits from some aeration.
