Franz Hirtzberger
Franz Hirtzberger and family reside in a 600 year old house at the base of the famed Singerriedl vineyard. The winery is located in hilly Spitz, at the western end of the Wachau, as the Danube snakes down from the mountains. The cool air of this area reinforces the minerality and delicacy of Hirtzberger’s wines. The family is a pillar of the Vinea Wachau Nobilis Districtus organization that preserves the quality of the zones wines zone– Franz’s father was a founder and today Franz is the President. The Hirtzberger winemaking philosophy is simple: closely managed vineyards, natural yeasts, fermentation in stainless steel, aging in large oak for Gruner Veltliner and acacia for Riesling.

Yellow apple and citrus fruit mingle with floral and herbal character on the nose, while the palate displays more zingy green apple, mineral, and Gruner's typical white pepper spice. Serve chilled on a hot day and have a second bottle ready to go because the first one will disappear quickly ... more

Ripe peach and Fuji apple flavors dominate this well-structured Grüner. Hints of tarragon and chamomile chime in on the creamy finish.
