Meinklang has taken the wine world by storm in the last few years due to the family's passion for making diverse products from the estate. Farming is at the core, with full bio-dynamic practices in place. The family has a full herd of Angus and Aubrac cattle, plus sheep. The farm believes in a full circle of life within the vineyards and farmland. The family has even achieved Demeter certification, one of the most difficult biodynamic certifications. The estate is located in the middle of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of National Park Neusiedlersee in Austria, just on the border of Hungary. The insane number of different wine labels produced shows the passion for creating wine with character and personality, with over 20 labels in production.
This wine is some of the best valued, quality wine on the market today. This Gruner shows itself in a playful manner oozing with minerality, lean green fruits, herbal and white pepper knows. It is quite the versatile pairing. It has a short aging in steel and spends a bit of time on its lees.
*Natural and Organic
Staff Review:
Biodynamic Austrian wine. Perfect light white wine with notes of green apple and stone fruits. Finishes with nice acidity. Pairs well with seafood and soft cheeses.
