The Wines!!
Steininger Heiligenstein Sekt $59.99/ Magnum $119.99
Heilignstein is one of the most famous Riesling vineyards in the world.
The steep terraces and „Urgestein“ are the perfect recipe for a great Riesling.
This single vineyard sparkling wine is characterized by pure minerality, deep fruit nuances of stone fruit, tremendous density and highly delicate bouquet. The base wine was matured in large neutral oak casks, giving sufficient rest period on the lees. A zero dosage lets all those delicate flavors shine through a perfect elegant fine mousse.
 
The press in Austria wrote: “Karl’s Heiligenstein Sekt starts where Champagne stops......... delicate and exceptional“ 

Alc.: 13.5 vol. % Acidity: 7 g/l Natural residual sugar: 3.5 g/l Zero Dosage


Anton Bauer Reid Speigel $27.99/ Magnum $55.99

(Alc. 13 %, RS 3g/l, AC 5.2g/l)
The Spiegel vineyard has loess in addition to gravel and river rock deposits from the old Danube river when it was wild and forming the Wagram. This gives the wine yellow pear flavors, stone fruit, a light pineapple and mango tropical fruit touch, great structure and a very long well balanced finish. The delicate creamy texture and lively, but pleasant, acidity making it a pure joy to drink.
Wonderful now, but also has great aging potential. 

Anton Bauer Wagram Cuvee Red $17.99/$35.99

 (Alc. 13.5%, RS 1g/l, AC 5g/l)
40% Blaufrankisch, 40% Zweigelt, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot
Cherry fruit with amaretto tones, red berries and herbs. On the palate cherry fruit again, with dark berry aromas and a pleasant background of herbs, good extract fruit, fine soft tannin. It finishes with a dry elegance and delicately herb tones of chocolate and cherries. Although absolutely delicious on its own, it will complement beef, duck, grilled pork, tuna, and rich red sauces.

Hillinger Hillside Select $29.99/ $59.99


60% Syrah, 30% Zweigelt, 10% Merlot 
Alcohol: 13,0 % alc. Vol.

A dark ruby colour with purple rim, the nose showing a combination of fruit and spice of blackberries, raspberries and cherries underlined by black pepper. Topped up with velvet flavour of cloves. On the palate the above flavours are supported by delicate roasted flavours with perfect harmonic acidity. The discreet flavours of the barrels support the perfect tannic structure lasting in a long finish.
Selection of best sites – ideally suited to accompany food and beverages. 

Steininger Port KraftVoll $49.99
2013 we produced for the first time a wine according to the port wine method – a so-called “fortified wine” (according to Austrian wine law: liqueur wine). In order to take an independent Austrian way, we chose the grape variety Grüner Veltliner for our “Kraftvoll = Powerful”.
The fully ripe and healthy grapes were harvested at the end of September.
After about a week we stopped the fermentation with our own Grüner Veltliner brandy vintage 2010.
The Kraftvoll could rest and develop in the barrel for 5 years.
The alcohol combines with the sugar and the wine gets its own full-bodied character through the oxidation in the barrel.
The fruit and acidity of the Grüner Veltliner gives the Kraftvoll spiciness, elegance and vibrancy.
