Description

This is an elegant Veltliner, produced with grapes deriving from the area of Wachau, one of the most important of the whole Austria, that is included in the “Federspiel” classification: natural wines with an alcoholic proof not superior to 12° and these wines do not contain any trace of sugar. The vineyards are manually cultivated on the hills situated on the west shore of the Danubio. The suffix “Grunen” means green and it concerns not only the yellow-green colour of this wine, but also the typical freshness of it. The wine presents a brilliant straw yellow colour with some green nuances, and it is fresh and fruited, with some nubbin fruits’ hints, apples and elderflower.
