100% Grüner Veltliner from Wachau, Niederosterreich, Austria.

The Höhereck bottling from Tegernseerhof is a rare and sought-after wine. Its unique location lends the Smaragd Höhereck its mineral aroma and wild, smoky character. The synergy of old vines, meagre soil and cooler climate creates a fullbodied, well-balanced and sophisticated Grüner Veltliner. It persuades with a distinctive nose – herbal hints, balm and candied pear. On the palate it is full-bodied, but tight with an elegant drinkability and a spicy long finish.

Martin Mittelbach is the fifth generation of Mittelbachs to run the historical Tegernseerhof, an estate that goes further back than 1000 years. Despite the estate’s history, Martin is a progressive winemaker with his own set of standards and way of thinking in this region.
