Forstreiter Grooner Grüner Veltliner is a refreshing and vibrant white wine produced by the renowned Forstreiter winery. This wine comes from the Kamptal appellation in Austria, where the vineyards are situated on steep terraces with rocky soils that provide excellent drainage. The winemakers use sustainable farming practices to cultivate the Grüner Veltliner grapes, which are hand-harvested and carefully selected for quality. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve its crisp and lively character, with no oak aging to maintain its pure fruit flavors. The result is a dry and zesty wine with notes of citrus, green apple, and white pepper, making it a perfect match for seafood, salads, and light dishes.
