Gritsch Riesling Kalkofen 2025 0,75l

Kalkofen sits in the cool Spitzer Graben near Viessling and is one of the Wachau's most distinctive steep terraces. Its south to south-east facing slopes are rooted in granodiorite gneiss and amphibolite. FJ Gritsch harvests the Riesling by hand, ferments it at controlled temperature and ages it on fine lees before maturation in large oak. The style is dry, taut and strongly mineral. Salinity, crushed stone, cool spice and red nectarine shape the aromatic profile. With air it gains depth and harmony while retaining its firm, precise line. It is an excellent partner for fish, white meat and Mediterranean dishes.

Gritsch

In Spitz, Lower Austria, at the heart of the Wachau, FJ Gritsch brings centuries of wine culture into a precise contemporary setting. The focal point is the 13th-century Mauritiushof, owned by the family since 1799. Its historic fabric now meets a wine experience centre opened in 2022 and the modern Kalmuck cellar, established in 2015 for exacting cellar work....

The grape variety: Riesling

Riesling is a noble white grape famous for citrus fruit, stone fruit, floral notes and vibrant acidity. It can be dry, off-dry, sparkling or beautifully sweet.

Its freshness makes it ideal with seafood, pork, spicy Asian cuisine, cheeses and desserts. Riesling is one of the most expressive and versatile white wine grapes.
