About the wine
Pioneer Anton Kollwentz is considered one of the great personalities of new Austrian wine and a significant co-founder of the “wine miracle”. Now son Andreas is shining in his footsteps. And how! The modern winery in Grosshöflein has sensational wine locations. The vineyards are as “tailor-made” as if they had been tailored for the Vienna Opera Ball. And Andreas knows why: he is interested in nothing more than perfect, fully ripe harvest for his world-class wines. The showpiece and “Austrian Latour” is the Steinzeiler: a Blaufränkisch with some Zweigelt and Cabernet Sauvignon. Precise, magnificent classic with incredible storage potential.

Tasting note
The grapes for this exceptional wine grow on a slope (180 — 200 meters above sea level), where vines have been growing for 2800 years. Each grape is selected by hand. 30 months of aging in oak barrels, which give the wine a variety of aromas. Exhilarating bouquet, completely ripe in its aroma, freshly baked dark bread combined with dark, fully ripe berries. On the palate, richness and elegance, harmonious with a dense but balanced mix of tannins. In the long finale, he never ceases to amaze — really, really great!
Culinary recommendation
Starters such as house pate or game terrines, dark mushroom sauces, stews, dark poultry such as duck or guinea fowl, steak variants, grilled meat, semi-hard and hard cheeses such as Sbrinz or mountain cheese.
Vinification
