Grüner Veltliner Steingarten Kamptal DAC 2019
Austria, Kamptal DAC
Grüner Veltliner
Description
Smoky. Spicy. Bready. Pulses and green olives. The fruit is reserved but opens up on the palate with citrus and ripe apple notes. Juicy, gripping and bone-dry, a firm and crystal-clear wine. So animated peppery and vital.

Vineyard
The Steinhaus vineyard site is paradigmatic for the geological diversity of the vineyards of Langenlois. Here, you’ll find what constitutes Langenlois’s extensive world of rock and stone (desert sandstone is practically the only exception). Depending on where you stand, you’ll find gneiss or mica schist, amphibolite, quartz, feldspar, loess, clay, sand limestone. The slope is diverse, ranging from very steep to very flat. The upper part of the Steinhaus always has been Riesling terroir. But down below, where the soils are deeper – and where we have our vineyards – are the best conditions for Grüner Veltliner.
