2022 Weingut Hiedler Gruner Veltliner Loss

Weingut Hiedler has been setting the standard for Kamptal white wines since 1856, and their 2022 Löss Grüner Veltliner is a masterclass in classic Austrian precision. Named after the deep, wind-blown glacial silt soils (löss) of Langenlois, this flagship village release is an absolute benchmark for the region. If you crave electric freshness, savory spice, and effortless food compatibility, this twenty-dollar bottle is an essential staple.

Ludwig Hiedler and his family take an uncompromising, low-intervention approach to farming. They cultivate bio-diverse vineyard floors, harvest entirely by hand, and rely on gentle pressing with ambient yeast fermentations. The dense, mineral-rich loess soils absorb solar heat during the day and radiate it back to the vines at night, imparting a distinct textural weight that perfectly balances Grüner’s naturally crisp acidity.

In the glass, it leaps with expressive aromas of yellow apple, green pear, lemon zest, and spring blossoms, punctuated by a textbook cracked white pepper snap. On the palate, a sleek and silky entry gives way to layers of juicy nectarine, crisp orchard fruit, and bright citrus that flow into a long, spice-infused finish.

Grüner Veltliner is legendary among sommeliers as a versatile dining table partner, effortlessly handling everything from tricky green vegetables to spicy Thai curries and classic schnitzel. At just twenty dollars a bottle, this handcrafted Austrian white delivers incredible everyday value. Lock in your allocation before our inventory sells out.
