The 2025 Stift Göttweig Messwein Grüner Veltliner is a light, dry Austrian white from the historic Benedictine estate in the Kremstal. The nose is fresh and inviting, showing crisp green apple and citrus zest with delicate meadow herbs and subtle peppery notes. The estate confirms the 2025 release as 100% Grüner Veltliner.
On the palate, it is light-bodied and lively with crisp acidity, crunchy orchard fruit and fresh citrus. Gentle herbal and peppery notes add classic Grüner Veltliner character, leading to a clean, dry and refreshing finish. At 11.5% alcohol, it sits firmly in a lighter, approachable style.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Grüner Veltliner drinkers who enjoy light, crisp Austrian whites with fresh fruit and subtle savoury spice. Best enjoyed young and chilled. Pair with schnitzel, grilled fish, roast chicken, fresh salads, vegetable dishes or light Asian cuisine.
