ABOUT THIS BOTTLE
Found throughout the Wachau on the steep dry stone terraces on both sides of the Danube River, the predominant grape variety at Domane Wachau is Grüner Veltliner, which makes up 55% of the vineyard area. Bright acidity and lively fruit flavors with classic notes of citrus, melon, hint of white pepper and great minerality. A delicious wine as an aperitif or with a variety of light fare.
