Campill 2018

There is no artistic idea behind the crossed-out label; rather, it serves to conceal the winery's home vineyard, which has been in Martin Gojer's family for generations and is unfortunately not allowed to appear on the label. The Campill 2018 is 100% Vernatsch and comes from steep high sites of volcanic origin and loamy sands. Meticulous, biodynamic cultivation without tractors, Marion and Martin work everything by hand, the steep terrain does not allow for more. After harvesting, the grapes were crushed and fermented with about 80% of the stems in wooden fermentation racks and then aged for 12 months in large wood. Bottled without filtration or fining. The Campill 2018 is a characterful, darkly spicy natural wine that incomparably reflects its alpine origins. Extremely fresh, lively and cool, nothing here seems tired, but always encourages the next sip. And yet there is a certain engaging fruit intensity that, together with the silky tannin, never seems lush. Vernatsch is Trollinger, by the way, and who would have thought that this grape variety could deliver like this. Marion and Martin Gojer from Pranzegg are absolutely exceptional winemakers.
