Steinfeder

2011 Wachau Gruner Veltliner

Jager Steinfeder is a delightful white wine crafted from the Gruner Veltliner varietal, hailing from the picturesque Wachau region of Austria. This vintage from 2011 showcases a beautifully balanced profile, offering a light to medium body that makes it incredibly approachable. The high acidity delivers a refreshing brightness, while the prominent fruit intensity reveals vibrant notes of green apple, white pepper, and a hint of citrus, all of which are further enhanced by the wine's crisp character. Its dryness leads to a clean finish, ensuring that each sip is both invigorating and satisfying. A true representation of the Wachau's terroir, Jager Steinfeder is a perfect companion for various seafood dishes or light appetizers, making it a versatile choice for any occasion.

Austria may not be the first country that springs to mind when you think of quality wine, but this slice of central Europe is home to crisp whites and elegant reds that are well worth seeking out. While many classic grapes are grown here, there are exceptional wines made from varieties you rarely see anywhere else, such as white Grüner Veltliner. Spicy and herbaceous, this wine combines notes of white pepper and asparagus with flint and apple. As for reds, the most planted is Zweigelt. This grape is a hybrid of two other local varietals: the spicy Blaufränkisch and light St. Laurent. It combines the best of both worlds with flavors of chocolate, black pepper and fresh raspberry.
