Gruner Veltiner (GV) 被業介視為品酒師的"秘密武器", 特別是Pichler-Krutzler那純粹的透明感和獨特的白胡椒, 西柚和礦石感個性,沒有別的方案可以代替,食物搭配性高但仍自然流露著我存在的暗示,不但沒有違和感,更增添了幾分個性。
來自Wachau的Elisabeth Pichler-Krutzler和來自Burgenland的Erich Krutzler於2006年在Wachau開設了自己的酒莊,兩夫婦都來自著名的釀酒家族(FX Pichler 和Krutzler),他們一起以優質靈魂和個性製作酒品,完全尊重自然和可持續發展的葡萄種植方式。
這些都是Erich Krutzler從九十年代定下來的足跡,當時他為家族Krutzler在Südburgenland出產出色而有性格的紅酒,這也解釋了為甚麼Burgenland Blaufränkisch會和Riesling 及 Grüner Veltliner出奇地同時出現在貨品系列中。
Pichler-Krutzler的葡萄酒皆突顯純淨,也從不會為品質而妥協。所有酒都充分反映其風土,收成、培養和裝瓶都從不混合其他品種。因為沒加糖、所有發酵的糖份完全來自葡萄汁本身、加上Unfined,所以能如實清楚地表現產地根源,是絕不譁眾取寵的高級手工藝品。

2018年的Dürnsteiner Grüner Veltliner香氣細膩獨特,清澈濃烈帶香料味。口感青蔥圓潤,是一款口感十足、溫和、新鮮但又帶香料味的Gruner Veltliner, 和很多食材也很百搭。
Elisabeth Pichler-Krutzler from the Wachau and Erich Krutzler from the Burgenland founded their own wine estate in the Wachau in 2006. Both husband and wife originated from famous wine-making families. Together, they craft wines of great soul and individuality, based on a respect form nature and sustainable viticultural practice.
All this is a continuation of the path that Erich Krutzler set out on in the 1990s when he helped his family estate produce outstanding and characterful red wines in the Südburgenland. This is why a Burgenland Blaufränkisch finds its place in the range alongside Riesling and Grüner Veltliner.
The Pichler-Krutzler wines are pure, unadulterated and made without compromise to quality. Each wine is the reflection of its own terroir, harvested, raised and bottled without blending. Since there is no chaptalization, no juice concentration, no fining or additives of any sort, all the wines express their origins plain and clear. Just high-grade handcraft without any fancy trends.

Tasting Notes:
(Robert Parker's rating: 89 points)
Bottled with 12% alcohol, the 2018 Dürnsteiner Grüner Veltliner is clear, intense and spicy on the slightly flinty, distinctive nose. Lush and round on the palate, this is a mouth-filling and gentle but fresh and spicy Veltliner that already drinks beautifully.
