Grüner Veltliner, Herbert Zillinger

Exciting Grüner Veltliner from the likeable Herbert Zillinger. Dry white wine, biodynamic wine. Full and mineral, with notes of ripe apple and pear, stony notes, white pepper. Very rich and broad, with a very long finish. Great pleasure wine from the Weinviertel in Niederösterreich. Wine from Austria.

Herbert and Carmen Zillinger live and work in Ebenthal, a village right on the Slovakian border in northeastern Austria. They make wines at 3 levels: Neuland as an entry-level line, Horizont as a mid-range and the top lines Radikal, Elementar and Profund. The latter applies to the Traminer, also known as Savagnin (Jura) and Heida (Switzerland).

Radikal and Elementar are the top lines for Grüner Veltliner. Elementar stands for purity and terroir expression, unaffected wine with a lot of power. Radikal is his top line, here he exposes himself completely with his own vision: clean power with an exciting edge.

In addition to Grüner Veltliner and Traminer, Zillinger also produces beautiful Sauvignon Blanc.

“… Zillinger is one of the very best wine producers in the Weinviertel , and I can only recommend to check out his vibrant and characterful style. Just do not expect any easy-drinking tutti frutti wines here. These are serious wines made for aging and sophisticated menus.” - Parker's Wine Advocate taster Stephan Reinhardt

“ … One of the most exciting wineproducers anywhere !… underpriced and undercelebrated… I am also very impressed by Herbert Zillinger's Grüner Veltliner… The real discovery as far as I am concerned is Herbert Zillinger, whose white wines are exceptionally good .”  - Jancis Robinson MW

Interesting
Herbert Zillinger is a purist. He strives for purity without compromise. No fuss and old rather than new techniques. Gives extreme attention to the vineyard. Loved by international wine writers such as Jancis Robinson and Jens Priewe.
