WRGVK
Region: Austria
Grape variety: Gruner Veltliner
Tasting notes: Bright yellow with a youthful green tinge. Characteristic "Pepper" and aromas of apple, quince and a hint of peach. The rich texture is well balanced by the juicy yet lively acidity. This wine is very elegant with a long and round finish; a delicious and classic example of a Grüner Veltliner from the Weinviertel. Great drinking pleasure.
WRGVS
Region: Austria
Grape variety: Riesling
Tasting notes: Notes of earth, yeast and corn husk make for an unusual but compelling nose. The palate enforces this even more: Fruit subsides next to that yeasty, salty, almost bitter intensity that also has a creamy backdrop and elasticity.
WRRRK
Region: Austria
Grape variety: Riesling
Background: The very high lime content in the Kugler vineyard has a very distinctive and lasting effect on the wines. The Rieslings with an exotic style and fine acidity. Weinrierder winery always goes to the limit, especially with the Riesling variety. They take it to a very high risk through the late harvest in order to wrest the best from nature. “Riesling on the limit”.
Tasting notes: Complex notes of peaches, honeysuckle, fruit bread and apricots, joined by hints of forest floor and sun-warmed rock. Incredibly fruity on the palate due to its residual sweet profile. Balanced, silky texture and lively fruit acidity and considerable length. Once again, hints of honeysuckle and papaya appear.

Tasting notes: The Weinrieder Ried Kugler Riesling is a first-class vegan white wine in the wine glass. In it, it presents a wonderfully bright, pale yellow color. This varietal Austrian wine reveals wonderfully complex notes of peaches, honeysuckle, fruit bread and apricots in the glass. The Weinrieder Ried Kugler Riesling reveals an incredibly fruity taste on the palate, which is not without reason due to its residual sweet profile. On the palate, the texture of this balanced white wine is wonderfully silky and velvety. Due to its fruit acidity, the Ried Kugler Riesling is fantastically fresh and fresh on the palate. In the finish, this white from the wine-growing region of Lower Austria finally inspires with considerable length. There are again hints of honeysuckle and papaya. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the soils dominated by sand and loess are added.
Food pairing: The wine goes perfectly with hearty dishes.
