"Austria's iconic grape variety is elevated by Markus Huber in this intense and complex cuvée!"

"What a fragrant and elegant Gruner, expressing sage, rosemary, white peach, lemon, and white pepper. Intense and complex, very structured with tannins and acidity, but only medium-bodied and very well integrated. Long and firm. Made from organically grown grapes. Best after 2024.

Rated Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate)

About wine:

The Grüner Veltliner Ried Zwirch 1ÖTW 2022 has a delicate, smoky nose reminiscent of iodine. On the palate, its juicy fullness is supported by a delicate, mineral acidity and a stimulating salinity. Its flavor is complex and persistent. 13% alcohol declared. Screw cap. Tasted at Schloss Grafenegg. 2027-2040

About wine:

What a fragrant and elegant Gruner, expressing sage, rosemary, white peach, lemon, and white pepper. Intense and complex, very structured with tannins and acidity, but only moderately full-bodied and very well integrated. Long and firm. Made from organically grown grapes. Best after 2024. Screw cap.

Falstaff

Falstaff

Wine rated (2023 guide) 94/100

About wine:

Medium yellow-green color with silvery highlights. Delicate white apples, hints of mango, mineral notes, and candied orange zest in the background. Juicy, elegant, finely fruited, well-integrated acidity, mineral and salty finish—a multifaceted wine for fine dining with good aging potential.
