Best Values on the shelf!!
Table 1 - Steininger - Monique
Rose' of Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 $15.99
Beautiful salmon rosé color, on the nose filled with dark red berries and cassis, following through on the palate with nice structure. Medium bodied and elegant, although perceptible density in the finish.
An aromatic and refreshing wine.
Kamptal Gruner Veltliner 2021 $17.99
This is an excellent example of a typical Austrian Grüner Veltliner. A dry and fresh white wine with influences of green apples, grapefruit and lemon showing off trademarks of flinty mineral, citrus and tropical fruit. The spice of white pepper and ripe acidity underlines all this.
A perfect every day white wine.
Grand Gru Gruner Veltliner 2021 $24.99
Medium green, yellow. This wine benefits with some aeration in the glass and reveals wonderful variatal character with subtle tobacco, yellow apple, dill and flinty minerals. Full-bodied and complex, yet very harmonious and nicely matured with the refreshing acid structure fully integrated.
This multi-layered wine remains long on the finish and demonstrates very good aging potential.
Riesling Sekt $24.99
The Riesling DAC Kamptal is the base wine for this wonderful Sekt.
A delicious, creamy, perfumed sparkling wine, all fresh acidity with lively white fruits and softness.
The acidity is infectious, giving great lift to this enjoyable crisp sparkler
Vinification: Traditional bottle fermentation.

Tegernserhof Bergdistel 2021 Smaragd $29.99
The Bergdistel Smaragd® is a blend of the lower terraces of the different Cru's in Loiben and Weissenkirchen. The combination of coolness, maturity and vitality of this Grüner Veltliner finishes in a shining elegance and full of finesse! Intense, concentrated wine, which packs spice, ripe pineapple and apricots and a final floral character that fills the mouth. The result is one of the most elegant and balanced Smaragd® Grüner there is.
Tegernseerhof Steinertal Riesling, Smaragd 2020 $44.99
"The north wind blows cold air at night on the terraces that build up like giant rows of veteran almost symmetrically upwards. A cover of soft sand runs through the vines and enables optimum living conditions. Born into this environment, the Riesling Steinertal is presented as a sensitive artist. It is characterized by fragility and a classy white while drinking occupies many different roles. At times strictly and salty, sometimes with gentle peach tones. Each sip creates new associations on the palate.
A great cultural experience in several acts, composed from his own grapes" Martin Mittelbach
Bauer Zweigelt 2018 $15.99
This is a traditional Austrian grape variety. A very elegant wine, harmonious, filled with ripe black cherry and subtle mocha notes. The palate features ripe deep fruit with a gentle smooth medium-bodied mouth feel. The finish is long and has slightly spicy peppery nuances.
Austrian reds feature amazingly pure fruit flavors - The best Pizza and Burger wine.
Bauer Wagram Reserve 2018 $34.99
Blaufrankisch/Zweigelt/Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot/Syrah - "Super Austrian"
Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections. Ripe cherry fruit on the nose and wild berry confit. Juicy, elegant, and balanced, fresh acid structure, already easy to drink, leafy tannins on the finish, dense red berry finish. Controlled fermentation in steel tanks - expansion and storage in new barriques in Allier and Troncais - 20 months
Table 3 - Eric Siema
Josef Bauer Riesling Feuersbrunn 2021 $18.99
This is a wonderful dry Riesling from a family-owned estate's terraced vineyards over Feuersbrunn, Austria. Very ripe with lots of stone fruit aromas, full-bodied with a great balance of fruit and acidity.
Great with white meat and fish dishes, light pastas, appetizers
Netzl Chardonnay 2021 $19.99
Unoaked - aromas of pineapple, lots of yellow apple, gardenia blossoms and a bit of toasted pie dough. A creamy palate followed up by a zingy acidity that finishes clean with a touch of apple skin bitterness. Sipping this, you see a tremendous versatility in how you'd use this wine - it's clean and zippy enough to have as an aperitif but has enough body and complexity to pair with anything you'd normally pair a Chardonnay with.
Netzl Carnuntum Cuvee 2019 $18.99
40% Zweigelt 40% Blaufänkisch 20% Merlot
This beautiful Carnuntum Cuvee is aged for a few months in large oak barrels.
The wine has a ruby-garnet color, red berries in the nose and nice herbal nuances.
On the palate, it is very smooth showing nice ripe tannins.
Serve with pork, chicken and some Italian foods like pasta Bolognese.
Edles Tal 2018 $34.99
65% Zweigelt, 25% Merlot and 10% Syrah
Named after the vineyard "Edles Tal", which means "noble valley".
A Zweigelt blend with new world influences, dark ruby garnet, fine nuances of spice, delicious fruit and well balanced. Pair with dark meat, lamb, beef or game.
Also goes well with a selection of different kinds of cheeses.
