Martin Nigl’s ‘Freheit’ is sourced from 4 different vineyards in the hills above the city of Krems. The soils here are primarily löss and the temperature is moderated by its steep elevation.

"This has sliced pears, grapefruit, celery salt and a hint of white pepper on the nose. Very fresh and crisp on the palate, with a medium body and a crunchy finish. Drink now. Screw cap."
