Wine ratings
“The characterful style of NESTOR wines is independent, genuine and emphasizes terroir. Climate and soil conditions are skillfully interpreted. All varieties retain their modern Burgenland character without compromise. The style stands for drinking flow, complexity and spontaneously fermented single-vineyard wines that tell exciting stories about origin and climate”
