Domäne Wachau Grüner Veltliner Ried Loibenberg Federspiel 2023

This Grüner Veltliner from the esteemed Ried Loibenberg vineyard offers a refined bouquet of fresh apple, melon, apricot, and white peach, complemented by exotic fruit nuances. On the palate, the wine delivers a rich texture with dense fruit flavors, a smoky saltiness, and an elegant structure that lingers on the finish. The Federspiel designation, rooted in medieval falconry, underscores the remarkable balance and sophistication of this dry white wine.

Serve well chilled to enjoy its full complexity. It pairs beautifully with classic Austrian dishes such as crispy cordon bleu, Wiener Schnitzel with risipisi, or Tafelspitz with traditional accompaniments like apple horseradish and chive sauce. The wine’s versatility also makes it a perfect match for Mediterranean meals like Saltimbocca or Paella, as well as cheeses and lighter Far Eastern dishes like Vietnamese spring rolls (Goi Cuôn).
