Grüner Veltliner Reserve Ried Gottschelle DAC - Weingut Stift Göttweig

The Grüner Veltliner Reserve Ried Gottschelle DAC from Weingut Stift Göttweig in Lower Austria presents a brilliant, platinum yellow color in the swirled glass. When the wine glass is swirled, this white wine is characterized by an immense lightness that makes it dance lively in the glass. This single varietal Austrian wine reveals wonderfully expressive notes of apples, papayas, physalis and nashi pear in the glass. These are joined by hints of cinnamon, vanilla and cocoa bean.

This wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with only 1 gram of residual sugar. This is a real quality wine, which clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so this Austrian enchants naturally with all dryness with the finest balance. Taste does not necessarily require residual sugar. Due to the balanced fruit acidity, the Grüner Veltliner Reserve Ried Gottschelle DAC flatters with a soft mouthfeel, without lacking juicy liveliness. The finish of this youthful white wine from the wine-growing region of Lower Austria, more precisely from Kremstal, finally impresses with good reverberation. The finish is also accompanied by mineral hints of the soils dominated by loess soil.
