The Malat family in Austria

In English:

The Austrian winemaker Malat is now in the ninth generation in charge of Michael who took over the winery after his parents Gerald & Wilma in 2008

The winery is situated near Krems in the old monastery of Göttweig with 50 hectares in production of high quality grapes that are manually harvested and slow pressed with the greatest ambitions of making a top class wines in every category.

Wines in this house are all differend but very good from the lighter Gruner Veltliner to the super sweet TBA wines that are among the best in the country, super wines.

Another thing is that the Malat family was the first producer of sparkling wines in Austria when they started to make sekt by the traditional method and hand riddling of the bottles, I have not tasted these.

My favourites are the pinot noir, the Steinbuhel Riesling is superb and all of the sweet wines are just brilliantly amazing. Try to find and get as many as you can.

 In German:
Der österreichische Winzer Malat ist jetzt in der neunten Generation in Höhe von Michael, übernahm das Weingut, nachdem seine Eltern Gerald und Wilma im Jahr 2008
Das Weingut liegt in der Nähe Krems in das alte Kloster Göttweig mit 50 Hektar in der Produktion von qualitativ hochwertigen Trauben von Hand geerntet werden und mit den größten Ambitionen, einen erstklassigen Weinen in jeder Kategorie gedrückt langsam entfernt.
Weine in diesem Haus sind alle Widerstreit, aber sehr gut von den leichteren Gruner Veltliner, die super-süßen TBA Weine, die zu den besten im Land sind, super Weine.
Eine andere Sache ist, dass die Malat-Familie der erste Hersteller von Schaumweinen in Österreich war, als sie zu Sekt nach der traditionellen Methode und Hand Rütteln der Flaschen machen begann, habe ich nicht probiert diese.
Meine Favoriten sind der Pinot Noir ist die Steinbuhel Riesling hervorragend und alle süßen Weine sind nur brillant erstaunlich. Versuchen Sie, und so viele wie Sie können.

I do not like red Burgundy, do I miss something?

Pinot noir is something that every wine nerd is talking about at many has their favourites from Burgundy and its many producers, how can that be? Me myself and I don’t get this at all even if I have been trying to for years and in every price level but I just cant get it! I love the nose of pinots from Burgundy but the taste is not appealing to me at all, I must miss something on my taste buds and some cells in my brain that isn’t there when it comes to Burgundy pinots, anyone who have some suggestions for me where to find this missing link?

The Pinots that I do like is the ones in styles from S-A and some from New Zeeland and even from California, Hamilton Russel is one of my favourite points from S-A together with Meerlust, Danie De Wet Nature in Concert and seven barrels from Catherine Marshall all great wines and beautifully made pinots that I can appreciate any day of the week, thanks guys for making my life to pleasurable.

I will get back to this subject because I find it challenging and sometimes very tasty J
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for following my blog and all the inputs from you



Love well and drink well //

Soppmaskin ! behövs det?

Äntligen finns det en termo mixer för alla hemma kockar som inte kostar en förmögenhet. Detta är en blender som funkar som dom allra flesta med en stor skillnad, DEN HAR EN INBYGGD KOK FUNKTION som gör att man kan koka en soppa direkt i skålen och mixa när den är färdig, man kan göra sin bearnaise sås, man kan koka sin kräm eller bär fyllning osv, otroligt användbar då man även kan göra super goda frozen Margaritas.

Alla som var på älska mat mässan förra helgen så med häpnad på dom Louise gjorde 2 olika soppor direkt i behållaren och slapp diska en massa grytor och annat, man bryner löken direkt i för att sedan fylla på med vatten, grönsaker och annat man vill ha i sin soppa.

Detta är en maskin som bör finnas i alla kök där maten och mat glädjen står högt i kurs.

Finns att köpa genom Christina@unictaste.se  och kostar nu 1999 kr + ev frakt
