Tement, Sauvignon Blanc Zieregg Kar Grosse Lage Sudsteiermark, 2022 [Pre-Arrival ETA 7/15]
Tement is, by wide agreement, one of Austria's very best estates, and the family has made Sauvignon Blanc into something profound in the steep hills of southern Styria. Zieregg is their grand cru, a vineyard sitting atop an ancient coral reef of limestone and marl right on the Slovenian border. 'Kar' is a cooler parcel within it, named in the local dialect for its chilly microclimate, planted to 30-year-old vines on calcareous soils. Spontaneously fermented and aged a long stretch in used oak, this is Sauvignon Blanc as serious, age-worthy white wine. Chalky, precise, and built to develop in the cellar.
