Sepp Muster Graf Morillon
Country: Austria

Grapes: Chardonnay
Vintage: 2018
Sepp and Maria Muster are pioneers of biodynamic winemaking in Styria, setting up their domaine with 10 hectares of vines in the early 2000s with full biodynamic certification by 2003. These are electrifying, complex and long lived wines that seem to reveal a different facet with every sip.
This is their Graf Morillon is made from 30 year old Chardonnay vines grown in 'opok' (clay and limestone) on steep slopes. After hand-harvesting the wine is fermented with native yeasts in 1200 litre barrels before being transferred to smaller, 225 litre barrels where it ages for 3 years. An intense, opulent wine with immense texture from barrel ageing, waves of stone fruit and minerality and taut acidity.
