Handwerk Grüner Veltliner Weingartenselektion — Kamptal, Austria 2024
Handwerk — German for "craftsmanship" — is produced by Reinhard Waldschütz in the Kamptal, one of Austria's most celebrated wine regions and the heartland of Grüner Veltliner. The Weingartenselektion (vineyard selection) is made from organically farmed grapes handpicked from select Kamptal sites, vinified to express the grape's classic character with precision and purity. The 1.0L format is a deliberate choice — designed for generous, casual pouring, whether you're hosting or simply want a mid-week glass without opening a second bottle.
The 2024 pours a pale, bright straw. The nose is clean and inviting — citrus, green apple, and the signature white pepper lift that defines great Grüner Veltliner. On the palate, it's light, crisp, and refreshing with well-balanced acidity and a dry, mineral finish. Exactly what Grüner should taste like — no more, no less, and all the better for it.
"A Grüner that tastes just like Grüner should — citrus, white pepper, light and crisp. Perfect sipper, or pair with sushi, Thai, chicken, salads. Dry, not sweet." — Rand Sieger, Lead Sommelier, 67Wine

This grüner veltliner is sourced from a selection of south facing, mountain and terrace vineyards all in the Pfaffenberg, but specifically from two lieux-dits called Danzern and Pitschental. The grapes were crushed and macerated for 24hr before spontaneously fermenting in stainless steel, and 10% in neutral oak, where it remains on the lees and 2% whole berries for 8-10 months.
Anne Krebiehl MW writes: The 2022 Grüner Veltliner Handwerk was harvested in Kremstal sites, from gneiss and conglomerate soils with a smaller proportion of loess and loam. The nose is a full hit of yeasty earthiness, pepper and super-savory miso paste, with hints of fern and sage. Peppery verve is alive on the palate, despite being bedded in this richness on a nonetheless slender body with a lovely phenolic web. (Bone-dry) - Vinous 92
