Wine Description:

The 2023 Non-Tradition Grüner Veltliner from Christian Tschida is a captivating departure from the norm. Crafted from two distinct vineyard sites—one on calcareous soil and the other on a steep schist slope—this wine showcases the complexity of Burgenland's terroir. Pale yellow-green with silver reflections, it offers delicate aromas of honeydew melon, mango, and meadow herbs, underpinned by a mineral undertone. On the palate, it reveals medium complexity with flavors of white apple, peach, and a precise, salty finish reminiscent of lime zest. This wine is a testament to finesse and is ideal for pairing with a variety of dishes.
