Tasting Note
"Clear pulsing citrus and tropical fruits in fresh, charged palate underlaid with dried mango and candied orange peel. Brilliant acidity and clean, focused, elegant depth" (Mick O'Connell MW - IWSC 2018 vintage) Provenance Producer: Weingut Stift Klosterneuburg Location: Klosterneuburg 3400, Vienna, Austria Appellation: Wagram DAC (Niederosterreich) Farming: Sustainable Bottle info. Variety: Gruner Veltliner Contents: 9.5% abv, 37.5 cl Special: Classic Dessert Wine (sweet) Closure: Cork Producer's View The Gruner Veltliner Ice-wine shows a full variety of the flavours and intense notes of this unique terroir. A strong yellow colouration, an intensively fruity bouquet. Furthermore, it exhibits charming creaminess on the palate and an exceptionally long finish. Food Pairings The key to successful food paring is balancing the Eiswein’s sweetness and acidity with either creamy, salty, or spicy flavours to create harmony. Try pairing it thoughtfully with fresh fruit tarts or compotes (especially with stone fruits, apples, or pears), blue cheese and strong and aged cheeses, Foie Gras or pâté, spicy Thai or Indian dishes like duck with hoisin sauce, and nuts and lightly spiced snacks. A correct pairing can elevate your experience beautifully in a tasting menu. |
