A brilliant modern twist on the classic Austrian white grape Gruner Veltliner. Made with a touch of skin contact, it has slightly more weight on the palate than you'd usually expect from this variety. Ridiculously moreish, crisp, bright and fragrant with notes of citrus and stone fruits, pear and plum. So fresh and so clean!

Born and raised at his family’s tiny winery in Kamptal, surrounded by picturesque vines clinging to steep terraces along the river, Matthias Warnung fell in love with winemaking from a young age. Before founding his eponymous winery, Matthias honed his craft around the world, most notably with famed natural winemakers Craig Hawkins of Testalonga in South Africa and Tom Lubbe of Matassa in France’s Roussillon region. He learnt that great wines start in the vineyard, offering real reflections of their terroir, the personality of place, and the nuances of the grapes. Matthias farms his fruit organically and employs natural ferments with as little intervention as possible. The resulting wines are pure and powerful, expressive and energetic. Modern classics for the contemporary drinker. Get excited!
