Christoph Hoch - Kalkspitz NV

“Wines that evoke emotion”, is the pillar at the centre of Christoph Hoch’s philosophy. Based in Hollenburg a sub-region of Kremstal, gifted by a Champagne-like terroir rich of sedimented limestone, Christoph’s wines have rapidly gained international interest amongst the natural wine movement. Demeter certified vineyards employing a mix of innovation and traditional methods to deliver pure, minimal intervention Grüner Veltliner and Riesling as well as naturally fermented sparkling (Pet-Nat) with ageing potential and finesse.

The Kalkspitz  is a fresh natural white pet-nat made by mainly Grüner Veltliner and Zweigelt. Lime, green apple, buckthorn and grapefruit on the palate. Initially, the wine is austere on the palate but gradually evolves into an elegant style of pet-nat that can be confused with a nice artisanal Champagne!
