Franz Hirtzberger Gruener Veltliner Rotes Tor Federspiel DAC 2024 12,5% Vol. 0,75l

The Franz Hirtzberger Gruener Veltliner Rotes Tor Federspiel DAC 2024 is an authentic expression of Wachau wine culture and comes from one of Austria's most renowned winemakers. The "Rotes Tor" vineyard, named after a historic city gate above Spitz on the Danube, is among the best parcels in the Wachau. Here, the vines grow on stony, partly barren terraced soils with a high proportion of primary rock, providing ideal conditions for minerally-driven wines with depth and character.

This Gruener Veltliner belongs to the Federspiel quality category, which stands for balanced, medium-bodied wines with a classic drinking strength of 12.5% ABV. The grapes are selectively harvested, gently pressed, and aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness, purity, and varietal character. The style is clear, precise, and straightforward – typical of Hirtzberger, typical of the Wachau.

The strict Wachau DAC designation of origin guarantees this wine not only regionality but also the highest standards of authenticity and quality. A classic with a rich heritage and fine aging potential.
