Vom Haus Grüner Veltliner

The grapes are grown on 110 hectares at a family-run winery near the village of Stetten, close to Vienna. The vines grow in sandstone soil, which gives the wine its distinctive flavour. The vineyards are surrounded by greenery, ensuring enough moisture for grape-growing even during dry periods. This wine is also suitable for vegetarians.

The harvest takes place annually in mid-September. The grapes are carefully selected by a team of pickers, and not all of them are suitable for making this delicious wine. Before pressing, the grapes are macerated for four hours and then gently pressed in a pneumatic press. The wine is aged in cool cellars at a temperature automatically maintained at 18°C. It is stored in stainless steel tanks and bottled in Burgundy-style bottles.

Dry Grüner Veltliner from Lower Austria pairs beautifully with fish such as trout or salmon, thanks to its refreshing acidity and subtle minerality. It also complements white meats, such as herb-seasoned chicken breast or turkey, and vegetable dishes such as asparagus or salad with citrus dressing. It is also recommended with goat’s cheese or seafood such as oysters or prawns.
