Grüner Veltliner DAC (Zuschmann): Organic Austrian White Wine from the Weinviertel region, typical Grüner Veltliner with a fresh peppery note, citrus fruit and ripe apple.
Gelber Muskateller (Potzinger): light but heavily scented with a hint of apricot and mint, the aromatic Muskateller is celebrating a well-deserved comeback in Austria and beyond.
Riesling Grimmling (Biegler): Single vineyard Riesling from Gumpoldskirchen by top wine maker Othmar Biegler, citrus fruit, ripe peach and apricot, mineral and complex.
Roter Veltliner Reserve Wahre Werte, Weixelbaum,
Not directly related to the famous Grüner Veltliner, there are only 195 hectares planted of this rare variety in Austria. It produces full bodied wines with hints of honey and tropical fruit. The grapes of Weixelbaum’s Roter Veltliner Wahre Werte are hand selected and picked, fermented in stainless steel and aged for 20 months in large oak. It is complex and creamy from ageing, flavours of passion fruit and with well balanced residual sugar and acidity.
Zweigelt Neusiedlersee (Iro): Indigenous Austrian grape variety, after handpicking and 12 days on the skins then aged in large used oak, Iro’s Zweigelt features typical dark cherry notes, forest berries, liquorice and spices, juicy and elegant and rounded off with fine tannins.
Süsse Luise Auslese (Preiner): The pinkish Rosen Muskateller' grapes were hand harvested, fermented and aged for 6 months in stainless steel to preserve their fruity aromas for this unique Austrian dessert wine. Delicious floral notes, rose, peach and apricot. Beautiful balance of the acidity with the 50gr residual sugar.
