Sensory Description:

This Grüner Veltliner opens with enticing aromas of elderflower, citrus, and thyme, offering a preview of its complexity. The palate is graced with brilliant, mouthwatering acidity and a filigreed structure that underlines its finesse. The wine's energetic mineral core is complemented by a saline, refreshing finish, making it a perfect choice for enthusiasts of Sancerres and Silvaners. Its delightful and lively nature is ideal for those seeking a wine with both vibrancy and depth.

Winemaker’s Background:

Barbara Öhlzelt is redefining the Kamptal wine landscape with her quietly revolutionary approach. Unlike the region's typically broad and textural wines, her creations are precise, angelic, and charged with an energetic zest. Barbara farms approximately seven hectares, focusing on producing wines that are expressive of their terroir with restrained alcohol levels and invigorating acidity. Her dedication to lesser-known sites and linear, focused winemaking results in wines that are often mistaken for Rieslings due to their tension and vitality.

Serving Suggestions:

The 2023 Barbara Ohlzelt Zobinger Grüner Veltliner pairs beautifully with a range of dishes. Its crisp acidity and complex profile make it an excellent match for seafood, particularly grilled fish or oysters, and it can beautifully accompany Asian cuisine or light salads. Serve chilled to enhance its refreshing qualities.

This wine is not just a testament to Barbara Öhlzelt’s mastery as a winemaker but also an invitation to experience the nuanced and refreshing potential of Grüner Veltliner from Kamptal.
