The wines of Herbert Zillinge r are more than worth discovering! For example, the world-famous British Master of Wine Jancis Robinson has been a big fan of Zillinger for years. And rightly so. In addition to the basic line Neuland and the middle class Horizont, he makes some of the most idiosyncratic Veltliners in all of Austria. They are therefore called Elementar and Radikal . He is also a king with Traminer (aka Savagnin in the Jura), the top wine of which is called Profund . You can find them all in our webshop.
All wines are made biodynamically , with little to no filtration and hardly any sulphites. Top sommeliers like Noël van Wittenbergh (Ciel Bleu**) like to work with it.
Zillinger is located in the village of Ebenthal , right on the Slovakian border in northeastern Austria. This is part of the so-called Weinviertel in the wine region of Niederösterreich. This is where mainly bulk wine and simple Veltliner come from. But there are also fantastic exceptions, such as the wonderfully headstrong Herbert Zillinger.
Nice to meet you: Herbert Zillinger
