On the variety and origins of this wine:
Grüner Veltliner is the most important grape variety in Austria and produces wines full of character, from light, fruity wines to full-bodied, aromatic wines from special locations to noble quality wines in every style of vinification. Lower Austria has the best geological and climatic conditions for this grape variety. Our ice wine was harvested on January 22, 2019 with 33 KMW. For an ice wine, the grapes must have at least 25 KMW, be harvested at at least -7 degrees and come into the wine press in a frozen state. As a result, the water in the grapes remains frozen and only the concentrated must flows out.
