I have 4 half bottles of assorted TBAs from Kloster Siegendorf from the period 1969 - 1979. I am looking for information concerning these wines in that era. A Google search indicates that this property has been run by Lenz Moser since 1989, that it now mostly produces Bordeaux type red grapes, has a small amount of white grapes, and that there are about 25 ha of vineyards. However I have not found any information about earlier owners or reviews of wines from the mentioned era. Thus I would be interested in any information that can be provided. I had to take a little German in school, but I do not read it very well. However I probably could struggle through a German reference if an English one is not available.
The information on one of the 4 half bottles, bought at auction many years ago, is:
Trockenbeerenauslese, Klosterkeller Siegendorf, 1979, Burgenland/Austria, Austrian Pinot Blanc, estate bottled, alcohol 14% by volume, Jost von Hoepler selection. There is a round gold seal with Burgenlaendische Weinpraemiierung Goldmedaille 1981. The thing that stands out to me on the label is the 14% alcohol. Many top German TBAs have only a very few percent alcohol.
