Winzer Krems Grüner Veltliner – Kellermeister Privat
Kremstal DAC, Austria 🇦🇹

Overview
A classic Grüner Veltliner from the Kremstal DAC, one of Austria’s benchmark regions for this varietal. Known for its cool climate and mineral-rich soils along the Danube, Kremstal consistently produces bright, crisp, and ultra-refreshing Grüners with excellent typicity.

Aromas & Flavors
Vivid notes of pear, green apple, and citrus zest, lifted by the grape’s signature white pepper spice. There’s also a subtle herbal undertone that rounds out the freshness.

Mouthfeel
Light to medium-bodied, with zippy acidity that keeps it lively and food-friendly. A faint touch of tannin adds structure without weighing it down. Clean, dry, and palate-reviving.

Winemaking Notes
Produced under Winzer Krems’ Kellermeister Privat label, which emphasizes classic varietal expression. Stainless steel fermentation preserves brightness and minerality, keeping the wine fresh and precise.

Food Pairing
Perfect with fresh salads, grilled vegetables, or seafood. A natural companion to spicy Asian dishes thanks to its crisp acidity, or simply enjoy it chilled on a warm day.

Verdict
A textbook Grüner Veltliner that embodies everything people love about the style: refreshing, balanced, and versatile. A great palate “reset” wine, ideal for everyday enjoyment or pairing across cuisines. 📚 Educational Sidebar – Austria’s DAC System
Austria uses DAC (Districtus Austriae Controllatus) to certify quality wines tied to specific terroirs — much like France’s AOC. Kremstal DAC, where this wine hails from, is known for fruit-forward Grüner Veltliner and Riesling with lively minerality and freshness. — 6 months ago

This is an amazing rose from Austria. Purchased it during the summer of 2020, but it made it until December in our wine fridge. Glad that it did, because it delicious and I will purchase again to enjoy on hot summer day! — 5 years ago

Pinot in a Riesling bottle! The Winery is close to Stuttgart less than 20 Miles from Porsche and Mercedes-Benz in Württemberg/Germany. There is a ton of fruit in this, quite dark. More Oregon than Burgundy. Super elegant. Tannins fully resolved. Dark cherries, hint blueberries and crushed marble, touch orange juice. Drink now. Given the diversity of terroir altitudes/mountains and different styles and affordability Germany is now in my opinion the leader in Pinot Noir and this is another prime example. Lyle when will you get a Pinot from the Ahr grown on Slate? — 5 years ago
