Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"Grüner Veltliner is the most widely planted white grape variety in Austria, which is Hermann Seifried's homeland. We were thrilled to finally be able to grow Grüner Veltliner here in New Zealand after it had passed through a long quarantine process. In 2008 we chose our Brightwater vineyard to plant a small area of these very special vines. More recently, we have established Grüner Veltliner vines in our Edens Road vineyard.
The 2022 Seifried Grüner Veltliner is delicate and floral. The nose has crushed almond and blossom aromas, while the palate shows gentle white pepper and chalky notes alongside primary fruit. A long lasting finish linger on the wine."
5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, December 2022 (2022 Vintage)
"Pristine and elegantly fragrant with white flesh stone fruit, lemon peel and jasmine nuances with a hint of white pepper on the nose. The brilliantly focused palate displays fine flow and silky texture, wonderfully framed by vibrant acidity, finishing long and mouth-watering. At its best: now to 2026."
