New single vineyard releases – a showcase for Höpler

We are excited to release 3 new single vineyard wines today:

• • • Gruner Veltliner Kirchberg 2021
    • Pinot Noir Rosenberg 2021
    • Blaufränkisch Leithaberg DAC Ried Kirchberg 2020

We release these only during exceptional years so it is testament to two great recent vintages 2020 and 2021. These wines possess heart and character. Below are some snippets from Christof’s delightful tasting notes. These wines are all available on our website.

Grüner Veltliner Kirchberg 2021

“This is a showcase for the multidimensional character of Grüner: full body, luscious but with finesse and typical GV spice. Uncommon but still so familiar. This what Grüner can do when chalk and sand meet with 45 year old vines in one of the oldest vineyards on Lake Neusiedl.”

Pinot Noir Rosenberg 2021

“Never judge a wine only by its colour! Your eyes will tell you to expect a light and fragile wine. Wait till your nose and palate send a quite different message. Fresh berries in a wicker basket with a surprisingly long finish and a deep core await. Highly intriguing!”

Blaufränkisch Leithaberg DAC Ried Kirchberg 2020

“This is an elegant, manly wine with a great depth of character. Strong and powerful with a beautiful heart and love for details. Vintage 2020 is Blaufränkisch at its best.”
