Gruber Röschitz is a pioneering winery in the Weinviertel wine region of Lower Austria, and has created new momentum that benefits the entire region. The focus is on the perfect interplay between "inside" and "outside," between vineyard and cellar, parents and children. A series of small hills rise around the village of Röschitz, and it is here that the finest vineyards are found. Lauschen is a single vineyard dedicated to the Blauer Zweigelt. Austria has become one of the world's leading wine-producing countries. Several factors contribute to the fame of Austrian wines. The plantations are often situated slightly higher along the slopes of the Alps. This helps keep the high summer temperatures low, which in many parts of the world are stressful for the wine industry. It is also considered the country that has made the most progress with organic farming, and perhaps most importantly, the often sheltered climate of warm days and cold nights allows for wide temperature fluctuations, resulting in grapes with diverse flavors. Austria is best known for its white wines and the national grape, Grüner Veltliner. But it also produces astonishingly good red wines, such as beautiful Pinot Noirs, Cabarets, and wines made from the house Zweigelt grape. Like this delicious red wine from Gruber Röschitz.
