Nikolaihof 2020 Grüner Veltliner Zwickl – A Refreshing Biodynamic Delight from Austria’s Wachau Valley

Experience the vibrant essence of Austria’s renowned Wachau region with Nikolaihof’s 2020 Grüner Veltliner Zwickl, a biodynamic masterpiece crafted from Demeter-certified grapes. This naturally unfiltered wine offers a unique duality: pour gently for a crystal-clear sip or shake the bottle to embrace its cloudy, sediment-rich character, delivering two distinct tasting experiences in one.

Praised by critics with 90-point ratings from James Suckling and Wine Advocate, this Grüner Veltliner captivates with its bright, pure bouquet of white fruits and subtle yeasty notes. On the palate, it balances crisp acidity with a creamy texture, underscored by herbal undertones and a hint of green pepper for added complexity. Its 11% ABV ensures a light, refreshing profile perfect for warm evenings or pairing with light dishes.

What sets this wine apart? Its unfiltered nature preserves natural flavors and minerals, while biodynamic farming enhances terroir expression. Winemaker notes highlight the joy of discovery: savor the clarity of the first pour or indulge in the earthy richness of the sediment-mixed second glass.

Ideal for enthusiasts seeking authentic, low-intervention wines, this Grüner Veltliner is a testament to Nikolaihof’s commitment to sustainability and quality.
