Origin

The Furmint "Vom Sandstein" comes from the Buchertberg in Styria, a south-southeast-facing site with a long ripening period. The soils of calcareous sandstone, silt, and gravel give the wine freshness, salty minerality, and precise tension. With this wine, Gottfried Lamprecht harks back to the historic Furmint ("Mosler") grape variety in the region.

Vinification

Selective hand-picking and spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts. Aged in traditional Startin barrels (300–600 l), which promotes structure, depth, and terroir expression.

Aroma and Taste

Food Pairings

Ideal with sushi, seafood, or grilled fish. Also suitable with vegetarian dishes with herbs or goat cheese.

Vintage Characteristics in the Region

The 2023 vintage brought a small but concentrated harvest, with stable acidity and precise structure. The wines show density, balance, and moderate alcohol levels.

Conclusion

The 2023 Furmint "Vom Sandstein" is a precise, mineral-driven, and terroir-expressive white wine. A modern expression of a historic grape variety with tension, freshness, and character.
