2020 Villa Haas Grüner Veltliner

Discover an intriguing white wine made from Austria’s signature grape in 2020 Villa Haas Grüner Veltliner. With similar qualities to Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, and Picpoul, this dry, lean wine is celebrated for its mouth-puckering acidity. Lively aromas of meadow herbs and peppery spice are followed by crisp apple notes on the palate. Grüner Veltliner is almost exclusively produced in Austria, a winemaking region that’s perhaps lesser known but just as exciting as other European winemaking countries. Its cooler climate is well-suited toward producing elegant whites with herbaceous character. Grown in Niederösterreich by a winery established in 1906, grapes were hand-harvested and matured on fine lees before bottling. Best served chilled (about 46–50°F), this wine is perfect for pre-dinner sipping. It also makes a fine match with appetizers, light fish, and veggie-based dishes. Adorned with a charming villa, the label makes this bottle a great housewarming gift for white wine lovers!
