Made by Falstaff Winegrower of the Year 2020, Fritz Miesbauer. Weingut Stadt Krems presents a real flagship of the fascinating wine region of Lower Austria (AT) with this Grüner Veltliner wine from the 2019 vintage. The medium acidity ensures a pleasant freshness and gives the dry white wine that certain something. Extremely intense and charismatic without any bravado.
Tasting Notes
A precise and elegant dry white wine, with charm in abundance. With all the hallmarks of top grüner veltliner, peach and pepper on the nose, and a crisp, focused limey acidity, this is particularly good value from the outstanding 2019 vintage.
Producer
The Weingut Stadt Krems is not only located in the center of the city of 28,000 - it also belongs to it. The entire 31 hectares of vineyards are within the city limits. With a history spanning more than 550 years, the winery is one of the oldest in Europe. As a member of the "Austrian Traditional Wine Estates" association, we have committed ourselves to maintain historic, venerable locations.
The young team of winemakers has one goal: to produce puristic terroir wines. Here everything revolves around the varieties Grüner Veltliner and Riesling. The wines tell of the origin of the grapes, the character of the region, and the individuality of the grape varieties. Authenticity always comes first.
