Domäne Wachau Grüner Veltliner Federspiel Terrassen 2024

Product Info

The Domäne Wachau Terrassen Grüner Veltliner Federspiel is a quintessential expression of Austria’s most celebrated white grape — grown on the dramatic terraced vineyards that cascade down to the Danube in the Wachau, a UNESCO World Heritage landscape of breathtaking beauty and viticultural precision. The “Federspiel” classification — named for the lure used by Wachau falconers — denotes a lighter, more elegant style, ideal for early drinking and everyday pleasure.

Pale straw-green in the glass, the nose is fresh and characteristically varietal: white pepper, green apple, and citrus zest are lifted by notes of fresh herbs, stone fruit, and a delicate mineral quality that speaks to the Wachau’s ancient gneiss and loess soils. On the palate, the wine is crisp, clean, and medium-light bodied, with a lively acidity and the grape’s signature white pepper spice threading through to a refreshing, mineral finish.

Domäne Wachau is one of Austria’s most important wine estates — a grower cooperative with over 200 members farming some of the region’s finest terraced sites. The Terrassen bottling draws from vineyards across the appellation, delivering a wine of consistent quality, genuine typicity, and remarkable value. Pair with Wiener Schnitzel, grilled trout, asparagus, or light vegetable dishes.
