<p>Madl is a family winery, started in 1990, has been run by Christian Madl since 2003. The estate is small, under 3.5 hectares, in the village of Schrattenberg, in an area called Poysdorf, on the Czechoslovakian border. It’s as far north in the Weinviertel as you can get. The climate here is much cooler than the Danube river area, perfect for making sparkling wine. Prior to returning home in 2003, Christian worked at Champagne Sanger in Avize, Raumland (probably THE most famous sparkling wine producer in Germany) in the Rheinhessen and Poll Fabaire, another well regarded winery in Luxembourg.</p><p>Everything at this address is treated like Champagne – grapes are hand harvested, pressing is gentle and Christian uses only the cuvée for producing his wines. The onothek is 100% Zweigelt which goes through malo and elevage in steel. En Tirage/ aging: 96+ months</p>
