Weingut Faber-Köechl | Gruner Veltliner

Region: Weinviertel, Austria Grapes: Gruner Veltliner Organic: Yes Vegan: Yes Low Sulphur: Yes Strong women, strong wines – this is the motto that mother Maria and daughter Anna live by at the Faber-Köchl winery. A deep connection to nature and the lauded Weinviertel region is important to these organic winemakers, who eschew emulating the major wine-producing nations. "A wine should taste like where it comes from," they say! In 2019, Anna was awarded Austria's Newcomer Winemaker of the Year for her efforts. Lean, cool, and beautifully structured Grüner with a fragrant nose of green apple, crisp pear, and fresh lime zest, accented by a lovely hint of lemon balm, elderflower, and the signature Weinviertel twist of crushed white pepper.
