2022 Stadt Krems Grüner Veltliner Wachtberg

The 2022 Stadt Krems Grüner Veltliner Wachtberg is a refined and site-driven Grüner Veltliner from the renowned Wachtberg vineyard in Austria's Kremstal region. Produced by the historic Stadt Krems winery, this wine showcases the depth and mineral character of the vineyard, offering aromas of ripe pear, green apple, citrus and white pepper, alongside subtle floral and herbal notes.

On the palate, it is beautifully structured, with vibrant acidity supporting flavours of orchard fruit, lemon zest and delicate stone fruit. The texture is layered and precise, while the vineyard's mineral influence adds freshness and complexity through to a long, dry finish.

Ben's Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Grüner Veltliner for those seeking a more serious, vineyard-focused expression of Austria's flagship white grape. Enjoy now for its freshness and detail or cellar over the next 5–8 years as additional complexity develops. Pairs beautifully with roast pork, grilled seafood, schnitzel, poultry dishes and seasonal vegetable-based cuisine.
