Grüner Veltliner with a difference. Our homage to the versatility of the grape variety: Grüner Veltliner classically spritzed with Wachau brandy.
VDN stands for "Veltliner Doux Naturel" in reference to the southern French "Vin Doux Naturel".
Very open and accessible on the nose, warm fruit, dried herbs, smoky tobacco notes, enormously complex. Powerful and dense on the palate, strong and elegant body, animating to drink thanks to the very balanced residual sweetness with a refreshing acidity; very
typical of the grape variety; extremely long-lasting. Ideally chilled, straight from the fridge, the V.D.N. is perfect as an aperitif, but also as a special end to a meal. As an accompaniment to food, the wine is a trump card with a variety of cheeses, from
fresh sheep's cheese, red smear cheese, mature hard cheese and blue cheese.

The grapes for the Grüner Veltliner VDN are harvested by hand in Smaragd quality. After a maceration period, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. The fermentation is stopped by adding Wachauer Veltliner brandy at around 60% with a final residual sugar content of approx. 90g. This gives the wine a fine sweetness combined with a powerful body and elegant spiciness. The wine is stored in wooden barrels on the fine lees until May to give it additional complexity.

The winery on the Kellerberg in the Wachau.

Domäne Wachau has developed into one of the most important wineries in Austria with a variety of typical Wachau wines under the management of Roman Horvath MW and Heinz Frischengruber. The small plots on the steep terraces along the Danube are painstakingly cultivated by hand by the winegrowing families, the heroes of the estate. Craftsmanship, sustainability and the unique biodiversity are elementary pillars of the work in the vineyards. Grapes from world-famous vineyards such as Achleiten, Kellerberg and Singerriedel are vinified.

The Wachau wine region is a renowned wine-growing region in Austria, which stretches along the Danube. It is located in the region of Lower Austria and covers an area of about 1,350 hectares. The Wachau is known for its steep vineyards, which are laid out on terraces, as well as for their barren soils, which give the grapes their characteristic aroma.

In the Wachau, white wines are mainly produced from Grüner Veltliner and Riesling grown, these wines are known for their high quality and varied aromas ranging from fruity to mineral. Due to the cool climate and high altitude of the vineyards, the grapes ripen slowly and develop an intense aroma.

Another feature of the Wachau are its wine terraces and the historic wine villages, which lie in the middle of vineyards. The wine culture of the Wachau is of great importance and is carefully maintained by the winemakers in the region. The harvest is often done by hand to ensure an optimal quality of the grapes.

The Wachau is also a popular tourist destination, as the vineyards and villages offer a picturesque backdrop. Wine tastings and cellar tours are very popular here to taste the region’s wines and learn more about winemaking in the Wachau.
