ABOUT THIS WINE

Crafted from a blend of Zweigelt and Pinot Noir sourced from sustainably farmed vineyards in Niederösterreich (Lower Austria), June’s Rosé is a non-vintage bottling that emphasizes immediacy, brightness, and a consistent house style. The grapes are gently pressed after a brief maceration on the skins to extract just the right touch of color and aromatic lift. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to retain purity, with a short élevage to preserve freshness.

Aromatically, the wine bursts with crushed red berries, pink grapefruit, and a floral hint of peony. The palate is dry and taut, showing vivid acidity and subtle saline minerality. Its low alcohol and clean profile make it an ideal aperitif, but it also pairs beautifully with light summer fare—think grilled vegetables, Mediterranean salads, fresh goat cheese, or sushi.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCER

Markus Huber is one of Austria’s rising stars, based in the Traisental region of Niederösterreich. With family winemaking roots stretching back over 200 years, Markus took over the estate in the early 2000s and quickly built an international reputation for precision-crafted, terroir-expressive wines. His focus is on cool-climate varieties—especially Grüner Veltliner and Riesling—but his rosé and sparkling wines have become cult favorites for their clarity and style.

The estate practices sustainable viticulture with a strong emphasis on soil health and minimal intervention in the cellar. Huber’s approach combines modern technical know-how with a deep respect for tradition, resulting in wines that are both accessible and complex. June’s Rosé reflects his ethos: clean, honest, and deeply rooted in Austria’s cool-climate elegance.
