The monks of the Zwettl monastery managed the vineyards until 1995, when the business was taken over by Michael Moosbrugger, with the guidance of Willi Bründlmayer. The Gobelsburg castle itself was first documented in 1178 as a fortified property with adjoining church. It evolved into a more residential-focused property in the 16th Century and was completely rebuilt in 1725.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSchloss Gobelsburg has 35 hectares (87 acres) of vineyards in various sites near the castle. These include the famous Erste Lage sites Heiligenstein and Gaisberg for Riesling, and Lamm, Steinsetz, Grub and Renner for Grüner Veltliner. These vineyards make the estate's range-topping, single-vineyard wines. Grüner Veltliner represents half of Gobelsburg's total plantings, with Riesling accounting for one quarter. Zweigelt, Sankt-Laurent, Blauburgunder (Pinot Noir) and Merlot are also planted in the vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the cellar, large maturation barrels are placed on wheels so wine can be moved around without needing to be pumped. In the pursuit of regional authenticity, oak for the barrels is sourced from Manhartsberg, north of Langenlois, rather than the normal French or American sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMutli-vintage white blend from every vintage from 1970 to 2017 from the following varieties: Gruner Veltliner, Riesling, Gruner Sylvaner, Muskat Sylvaner, Riesling Sylvaner, Welschriesling, Muskat Ottonel,Traminer and Muskateller.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"1976 WINEHOURS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52503070769464,"sku":null,"price":412.97,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/5317\/0488\/files\/NVSchlossGobelsburgTraditionHeritageCuvee50Yearsrating.jpg?v=1781487096","url":"https:\/\/1976winehours.com\/products\/nv-schloss-gobelsburg-tradition-heritage-cuvee-50-years","provider":"1976 WINEHOURS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
