Description

Egon Grüner Veltliner comes from Kremstal in Niederösterreich, Austria, produced by a family winemaking since 1868. The wine is made from 100% Grüner Veltliner grapes grown on sustainably farmed vineyards along the right bank of the Danube. The vines thrive in loess and conglomerate soils with east and south-facing exposures. Fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness, the wine undergoes no oak aging. The continental climate and mineral-rich soils contribute to the wine's characteristic acidity and peppery spice notes.

Tasting notes

On the palate, zesty citrus flavors combine with stone fruit, crisp acidity, and peppery spice. Light to medium body with a clean, refreshing mineral finish.

Food pairings

Pairs with asparagus, goat cheese salad, grilled vegetables, sushi, Vietnamese spring rolls, chicken schnitzel, Thai green curry, and fresh oysters with mignonette.

Producer profile

Egon

Egon represents a family winemaking legacy in Kremstal, Niederösterreich (Lower Austria), with continuous production since 1868. Located along the right bank of the Danube River across from the prestigious Wachau region, Egon's vineyards grow alongside some of Austria's oldest vines on prime south and east-facing slopes.

The estate specializes exclusively in Grüner Veltliner, Austria's signature white grape variety. Vineyards are planted in loess and conglomerate soils—the ideal combination for producing mineral-driven, aromatic wines with bright acidity and characteristic white pepper notes. These wind-deposited loess soils contribute exceptional minerality and flavor concentration.

Egon practices sustainable viticulture without synthetic chemicals, aligning with the natural and minimal-intervention winemaking movement throughout Europe's quality wine regions. The estate ferments Grüner Veltliner in stainless steel tanks to preserve fresh, vibrant character without oak aging, following traditional Austrian methods that reflect the Heurige tradition of young, fresh wines.

Egon bottles wine in convenient one-liter formats, offering value while maintaining quality. The continental climate of Kremstal, with warm days and cool nights moderated by the Danube, creates ideal conditions for Grüner Veltliner's signature balance of ripe fruit, high acidity, and aromatic complexity.

Wine region

Kremstal, Austria

Kremstal is a distinguished wine region in Niederösterreich (Lower Austria), situated along the Danube River between the renowned Wachau to the west and Kamptal to the north. The region takes its name from the historic town of Krems-an-der-Donau, a major commercial hub for Austrian wine. Kremstal gained Districtus Austriae Controllatus (DAC) status, Austria's protected designation system, recognizing its distinctive terroir and quality standards.

The region's diverse geology creates ideal conditions for Grüner Veltliner and Riesling production. Loess soils dominate the inland vineyards, providing excellent water retention and mineral content that translates to wine complexity. Closer to the Danube, limestone and clay soils contribute structure and aging potential. The river's moderating influence creates a favorable mesoclimate with warm days and cool nights, preserving acidity while allowing full ripeness.

Kremstal Grüner Veltliner displays classic Austrian character—citrus fruit, white pepper spice, and pronounced minerality with bright acidity. The wines balance freshness with depth, offering excellent food pairing versatility. Like Burgundy's Mâconnais region, Kremstal produces approachable yet terroir-driven wines that authentically express their limestone and loess origins.

Kremstal's winemakers increasingly embrace sustainable and organic viticulture, reflecting growing environmental consciousness throughout Austria's wine industry while maintaining the region's reputation for quality and authenticity.
