F.X. Pichler, Loibner Ried Klostersatz Grüner Veltliner, Wachau, 2023

$43.00

Klostersatz is one of the Wachau’s classic Grüner Veltliner vineyards, sitting on the valley floor in Loiben where deep alluvial soils of sand, gravel and river stones give the wine its fresh character. Under the direction of Lucas Pichler, the estate farms these parcels with the same attention as their famed terraces, picking selectively and fermenting at cool temperatures to preserve the fruit’s freshness.

The 2023 Klostersatz is generous and lively, showing ripe pear, lime zest and a touch of white pepper with a subtle herbal note. The palate is clean and energetic, with a smooth texture and a crisp finish that keeps it refreshing. It’s a classic Wachau Grüner that is bright and uncomplicated.
