Soellner Fumberg Organic Grüner Veltliner, Wagram

A rich, biodynamic Veltliner from old, deep-rooted vines, some as old as 20 years, made from the best, ripest grapes from old Grüner Veltliner vines. The grapes are grown organically and are hand-selected and pneumatically pressed. The juice ferments very slowly in large wooden barrels. After the alcoholic fermentation has taken place, the young wine is kept with the yeast to gain its character. It is finished in big casks and is bottled only after maturation at least eight months later.

Soellner wine is fermented on “wild yeast”, derived from their vineyards. For the last 100 years, the family have been cultivating vineyards on 16 hectares in the vicinity of Goesing, a village sheltered amidst soft hills and slopes in the Wagram region where the special microclimate and deep loess, clay and gravel soils are perfect for well-balanced, fresh and mineral wines. It is now over 20 years since they switched to organic viticulture and biodynamic preparations.

The Country

Austria

Grüner Veltliner is the grape to look out for here, making food-friendly, zesty whites in the cooler north-east. The red Zweigelt and Blaufrankisch grapes grown further east produce juicy, light to medium-bodied red wines.
