The incomparable Nikky Saahs of Nikolaihof biodynamic winery in Austria’s Wachau region, takes the Soif winebar mainstage next Sunday, January 25 from 2-4. This is the fifth year in a row that Saahs has visited to explore and discuss the crisp mineral-driven wines of his very ancient estate. How ancient? Well with a history that dates to the Roman times, Nikolaihof was the site of a monastic center in the 10th century. That’s how ancient!
Included in the tasting will be Grüner Veltliners and a 1998 Riesling that should blow participants away. Georg Prieler of the Burgenland estate Weingut Prieler will also be on hand to walk us through a few choice Pinot Blancs and a Blaufrankisch from his estate.
These are rare and extraordinary wines, introduced by expert vintners who will entertain questions and comments with diplomacy and charm.
Plan to be there – expand your wine knowledge and treat your tastebuds to a very happty New Year!
That’s at Soif.
