Grüner Veltliner is Josef Ehmoser`s lead variety and thrives in the characteristic loess soils. The grapes for this wine are sourced from the estate`s prized south-facing vineyard, the Georgenberg, located in the Wagram region of Austria. Macerated on the skins and barrel matured in traditional large oak casks, this one-of-a-kind Veltliner delivers exceptional depth, complexity and distinction. Layered fruit aromas are joined by the delicate spice of white pepper and a creamy texture with both power and length. The perfect pairing for foie gras, Asian cuisine, lobster, savoury cheeses and even game.
Producer Information
The Josef Ehmoser Winery is located in Tiefenthal in the village of Grossweikersdorf, located between Krems and Vienna. Here the third generation vintner Josef Ehmoser and his wife Martina contribute their efforts to the famous Austrian wine region Wagram. Five essential elements distinguish the wines of the Ehmoser Winery: the climate, the soil, the location, the grape varieties, and the vintner himself.The philosophy of Josef Ehmoser Winery is “respect the environment” and this attitude is also reflected in their wines. To preserve natural resources, they intervene only when necessary and as little as possible. The wine labels also communicate their high regard for the natural elements: sun, water and, of course, the vines. “We are merely observers.” It is only in harmony with nature that the true character of the wine thrives. Through deep understanding of the vine, the environment, and the natural processes, the grapes achieve balanced ripeness. The mission of the Josef Ehmoser Winery is to support the potential of the vines and highlight their innate character without forcing them on a prescribed path. In this way, nature’s vitality remains fully intact.
