Complex and silky, this features elderflower, peach, grapefruit, hawthorn and legume aromas and flavors, with a peppery finish. It's harmonious, inviting and graceful from beginning to end. Drink now through 2025. 650 cases made, 30 cases imported. - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator

Valley and hillside vineyards as well as high-elevation terraces produce the aromatic and spicy complexity of this wine, offering pure, sophisticated drinking pleasure. Formed by the Danube River. Articulated by stone terraces created by the hard labour and toil of the winegrowers. Now preserved and protected in its authenticity by forward-thinking residents. The Wachau became a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site in 2000.
