The Grüner Veltliner Ried Ekartsberg 2024 from Weingut Pesau is an exquisite expression of the Grüner Veltliner grape, from the renowned Weinviertel region. This wine is produced from grapes grown on the unique slopes of the Ried Ekartsberg, where the calcareous soils and temperate climate provide a beautiful balance between freshness and minerality. In the glass the wine shows a bright, straw-yellow colour with green reflections. The bouquet is fresh and aromatic, with notes of green apple, citrus fruit and subtle hints of white pepper and spice, characteristic of the Grüner Veltliner grape. The taste is refreshing, with crisp acidity and a mineral undertone that gives the wine an elegant structure and a long, refined finish. This wine pairs perfectly with a variety of dishes, such as light fish dishes, fresh salads and white meat. It also shines as an aperitif, thanks to its lively character and balanced flavour profile.
Excellent with light fish dishes, fresh salads and white meat.
