ABOUT THIS WINE

Harvested in October, this Grüner Veltliner undergoes a gentle whole bunch pressing followed by fermentation with natural yeasts. It is matured in stainless steel tanks, where it rests on the lees until bottling in July 2024. The wine is then released in September 2024, capturing the freshness and vitality of the vintage.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCER

Half of the land consists of south-facing loess terraces with locally renowned names. Vines are Riesling, Veltliner and Pinot Blanc. There’s some land on the Gedersdorf plateau that’s planted to red varieties. All the wines are made dry, of course. They use cultured yeasts to get slow fermentations and to preserve the utmost CO2. Berger is all stainless steel, of course. Technology for controlling fermentation temperatures, by no means universal in Austria, has been in use here since 1990.
