Rosé wine;
2025
The valley of the Danube and its side-valleys belong to the ‘Cool climate’ areas of Austria. Some vineyards are even too cold for red wine making. Zweigelt, St. Laurent and Pinot Noir grapes grown in the cooler sites of Gobelsburg and Langenlois are used for this wine.

Rosé on the estate is not seen as a secondary product to red wine, meaning we are not doing ‘saignée’ in order to concentrate the reds, but we are working in our vineyards in order to get the perfect Gobelsburg rosé wine type, which is closer to a white in style. We are looking for charming and elegant aromas, fresh and lean texture and a racy, profound acidity for pure drinking pleasure.

38ste Proefschrift Wijnconcours in Amsterdam: Winner
38th Proefschrift Wine Competition – Rosé Wines of the Year - Final: "Striking reddish-copper color, somewhat atypical rosé aroma, flavorful attack, fruity, well-balanced acidity, lively finish, spicy aftertaste, unique, bold rosé wine, a surprise for the jury. 4.5/5 stars”VINOUS - Antonio Galloni 06/26: 91 Points
The 2025 Rose Cistercien, is an explosively textural wine that is a very fun, wild ride. Spritzy, mousse-like bubbles carry a raging river of fresh wild strawberry, limestone-like mineral cut and deep, orange-peel-like pithiness. This is so chiseled, not to mention utterly distinctive and super refreshing. What an interesting, joyful quaff. (Billy Norris)Vintage 2024
VINOUS - Antonio Galloni 05/25: 90 Points
The 2024 Rosé Cistercien is a deeply mineral wine. Acids here are driving and persistent, cutting like a tornado across a cornfield. The intensely chalky, rocky minerality is the main attraction, as there’s not much fruit or aromatic expression to speak of. That said, I like this for its distinctiveness and particularly terroir-driven feel—something that is highly unique in the world of Rosé.Vintage 2022
WINE ENTHUSIAST: 89 Points
Nicely made rosé, which shows great freshness, but doesn't lack in substance, featuring flavors of crushed strawberries , cherry and violet.Vintage 2021
The WINE ADVOCATE - R. Parker: 87 Points
This offers a bright and very delicate, clear and fresh bouquet of red fruits. Round, lush and savory on the palate, with charmingly intense and aromatic fruit, this is a spring-like Kamptal rosé reminiscent of a classic Provence rosé. Very delicate and refreshing indeed. (S.Reinhadt)Vintage 2020
Medianet WEINGUIDE WEISS 2021: 4/5 glasses
Blush, remarkable legs showing viscosity, fruity bouquet, lime jelly, juniper berries, zesty acidity, delicate fruit expression, cherries and lime juice, structured, pure, mineral grip, juicy and worthy. CertificateProduct description
