Fruit essence

Fruit essences are not mass-produced juices, but handcrafted beverages with a gastronomic focus. The harvest time and the fruit's condition are crucial. The goal is not the primary aroma, but a multifaceted drinking experience with depth, clarity, and tranquility.

Production begins with a gentle pressing process that preserves the finesse and structure. Depending on the producer, the essences mature further – in some cases for months or even years – allowing the natural acidity to settle and the texture to gain depth. This results in precise compositions with a clear, clean line and no heaviness.

In the glass, the interplay of sugar and acidity takes center stage: clear fruit, a defined profile, and a lingering finish. The focus is on acidity, fine tannins, and depth. Quince reveals citrus, honey, and spice; cherry brings dark berries and herbal notes; grape spans the spectrum from minerality to floral nuances – present, precise, and distinctive.

OUR PERSPECTIVE

In the glass, the Mammoth Quince displays a hazy yellow color with subtle golden highlights. The taste is full-bodied and vibrant, with a harmonious balance between the sweet fruitiness and the natural acidity of the quince, along with notes of ripe citrus and a slightly tart finish. It should be served in a wide-bowled wine glass and enjoyed only slightly chilled to fully appreciate its complex aromas.

Wachstum König - Silberberger Mammoth Quince (2024) | Organic BEHIND THE SCENE'S

PRODUCTION

The fruit for the mammoth quince comes from the Silberberg region of Styria. The quinces are harvested when fully ripe and then cold-pressed to preserve the complex aromas and tannin structure of the variety. The juice is bottled unpasteurized, unfiltered, and without additives – a conscious decision against heat preservation in favor of texture, feel, and origin.
