Its vignerons work in small parcels — each cultivating under two hectares on average, mostly by hand — across the Wachau's steep, terraced slopes above the Danube. The estate's grand single-vineyard (Ried) wines, from sites like Achleiten, Brandstatt and Kellerberg, express the sparse gneiss soils and cool, fresh Wachau acidity that define the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout This Wine:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Ried Liebenberg vineyard sits between Weissenkirchen and Dürnstein, one of the area's south- and southwest-facing sites known for its dry-stone terrace walls, elegance and cool minerality. Bottled at Federspiel level — Wachau's middle weight classification, between the lighter Steinfeder and the riper Smaragd — this Grüner Veltliner is fermented in stainless steel and finished under screwcap for maximum freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"width: 100%; height: 2px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center; font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eRatings \u0026amp; Reviews\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e92 Points - James Suckling:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This has attractive notes of sliced apple, fresh melon and nectarine, with freshness and purity, followed by a medium-bodied, crunchy palate.

It is fermented in stainless steel and a large neutral barrel. The merest touch of white miso and pepper appears on the shy nose. Immediate, smooth and rounded ripeness defines the body, whereas yeasty juiciness suggests both stone fruit and pear, ripe but still crunchy. Concentration on the palate brings out zestiness rather than yeast and continues in a sinuous, smooth, balanced flow towards the fresh finish that captures ripeness as much as brightness.
