The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.
An excellent white wine featuring Gruner Veltliner. After being hand-harvested, the grapes are carefully fermented at the Birgit Eichinger winery. Birgit Eichinger Gruner Veltliner Strass is then aged for four months on its own lees. The result is exceptionally refreshing. Fine acidity combines with plenty of fruit. The finish is surprisingly spicy with a hint of pepper. Therefore, Birgit Eichinger Gruner Veltliner Strass is the perfect accompaniment to an Indonesian curry, where the wine perfectly complements the spice.
An Austrian wine to dream of. This wine is made by Weingut Birgit Eichinger. This winery was founded in 1992 by the eponymous Birgit Eichinger. Her goal was to produce beautiful Austrian wines, and she has certainly succeeded. This winemaker is also a member of the prominent 11Winemaker Women club. These are all female winemakers who not only share a wealth of knowledge and experience but also continually challenge each other to create the finest wines. Their vision is that if you think outside the box, you can create magnificent wines.
The winery is located in the Strass region, in the small village of Straß im Straßertale. It's just a stone's throw from the mighty Danube, which meanders through the landscape. Numerous vineyards line the banks of this river, particularly in this area. This is because the region is ideal for viticulture. The pride of Austrian wines, Gruner Veltliner, thrives here. It's no wonder, then, that Birgit Eichinger has given this beloved grape a starring role in all her wines, including this Birgit Eichinger Gruner Veltliner Strass, sourced from the lower-lying vineyards.
