Here’s a wonderfully racy, medium-bodied gruner veltliner with Reine Claude plum fruit and wild herb aromas that make this very expressive. Long, very clean finish. From a gravelly soil on the plain between the terraced hillside sites and the bank of the Danube. From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Light yellow-green in colour with silver reflections. On the nose, an inviting aroma of yellow apple, subtle blossom honey, a hint of lemon balm, and herbal spices. The juicy, elegant palate is mineral and nimble with integrated acidity, and white stone fruit on the candied finish, already easy to drink.

The 2023 Grüner Veltliner Klostersatz is from the sites of Danubian gravels directly surrounding the winery. It comes with a creamy, smooth, yeasty aspect on the nose, with crushed green foliage of woodruff. The palate is light but has a translucency, a green freeness that echoes with fine white pepper, and a smooth, mellow, savory aspect before tapering into freshness on the finish. (Bone-dry)
