Grüner Veltliner - Glatzer

The light-footed Grüner Veltliner from the house of Glatzer enters the glass with a brilliant platinum yellow color. The first nose of Grüner Veltliner flatters with nuances of lime, pomelo and grapefruit. The fruity hints of the bouquet are joined by more fruity-balsamic nuances.

On the palate, Glatzer's Grüner Veltliner starts pleasantly dry, grippy and aromatic. On the palate, the texture of this light-bodied white wine is wonderfully crisp and dense. The finish of this youthful white wine from the wine-growing region of Lower Austria, more precisely from Carnuntum, finally convinces with good reverberation. The finish is also accompanied by mineral notes of the soils dominated by sand and clay.

Vinification of the Grüner Veltliner from Glatzer

The elegant Grüner Veltliner from Austria is a single varietal wine, made from the grape variety Grüner Veltliner. In Lower Austria, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on soils of clay and sand. The grapes for this white wine from Austria are harvested exclusively by hand, at the time of optimal ripeness. After the harvest, the grapes are immediately transferred to the press house. Here they are selected and carefully broken up. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. At the end of fermentation, the Grüner Veltliner is left to harmonize on its fine lees for a few months.
