Description

Belle Naturelle Rosé was created through the power of the collective. The significant difference this time, however, was that we had no part in its conception - as we had no idea it was even in the making. In short, Belle Naturelle Rosé is the creation of our team and was poured for us as a surprise at a Christmas party a few years ago. Since we liked the idea and the wine tasted fantastic, the Belle Naturelle Rosé has been an integral part of our portfolio ever since. Hand-picked grapes of Zweigelt and Pinot Noir were pressed whole bunch as "blanc de noir". The bright juice fermented spontaneously with destemmed grapes of Cabernet Sauvignon in neutral Austrian oak barrels. The skin fermented Cabernet-Sauvignon grapes brought color and structure to the wine. After two weeks, the wine moved to used oak barrels where malolactic fermentation ended and then spent about six months on the lees in our 700-year-old cellar. Fermentation with a combination of berries gives a unique and complex natural wine with a high diversity of flavors.

Serving recommendations

Serve at 9-11 °C with Vienna schnitzel, sausages, goulash, salad.

Elegant, but round in style, this rosé is copper in color and shows the wild side of the category, in the best way possible. Rooibos and rose petal glide along the earthy cherry. There is an almost salty note that marks the finish.

About brand

The Jurtschitsch winery is located in the historic Sonnhof estate in the north of Austria, in the famous Kamptal wine region. The history of the estate's cellars dates back to the 14th century, when the land was worked by monks. In 1868, the estate was purchased by the Jurtschitsch family, who have since then nurtured the tradition of winemaking with respect for nature and innovation.

Leaders in innovation in Austrian winemaking
The Jurtschitsch winery has long been one of the most progressive in Kamptal. They were the first in the region to:

Filter and bottle the wine themselves (previously this was done by intermediaries)

Organic winemaking - since 1972

Promoting wines from individual vineyards in order to reveal the terroir - the influence of soil, climate and location on the taste of the wine

Today, the name Jurtschitsch stands for unrivaled quality, stability and sustainability worldwide.

Vineyards and main grape varieties
Most of the vineyards are dedicated to white grape varieties, and the winery pays special attention to:

Grüner Veltliner - the flagship of the Kamptal region, known for its minerality and freshness

Riesling - an expressive, complex and long-maturing wine

The family carefully works with single-vineyard wines, emphasizing the natural diversity and terroir influence - this is highly appreciated among wine experts and collectors.

GruVe - art and wine in one
Since 1987, Jurtschitsch has been presenting a special GruVe Grüner Veltliner wine every year, the label of which is designed by a different artist every year. It is not only a high-quality dry white wine, but also an art project that attracts creative and wine lovers all over the world.
