2016 Domäne Wachau Grüner Veltliner Terrassen Federspiel
Domäne Wachau
Domäne Wachau is one of Austria’s most renowned wineries, based in Austria’s most prestigious wine growing region, the Wachau. Steep terraced yineyards, a cool, marginal climate and meagre primary rock soils define the wines. "Federspiel“ stands for dry, medium bodied and elegantly balanced wines of the Wachau.
TERRASSEN
The grapes for Grüner Veltliner Federspiel Terrassen were carefully hand-picked from steep terraced vineyards throughout the Wachau valley with its specific microclimate and meagre primary rock soils. It exhibits a very typical and consistent style of Grüner Veltliner from Wachau with plenty of fruit and a pronounced mineral character.
TASTING NOTE
Bright yellow-green in colour, this wine offers distinctive aromas of golden delicious apple, white pepper, hints of exotic fruits, balanced with delicate herbal notes. This Federspiel is a traditional example of Grüner Veltliner with its medium-body crisp acidity, juicy fruits and white spice on the finish.

Shows decent complexity, with roasted pineapple notes framed by hints of toasted herbs and shishito pepper. Leaves a salty aftertaste. Drink now.
