STORY
Markus Huber was born and raised at the winery situated
in the Traisental Valley, the sub-region of Niederösterreich.
The estate has been with the Huber family for nine
generations. Since the year 2000, Markus Huber, the 10th
generation Huber, has been responsible for the Huber
estate and through that he has become one of the leading
winemakers in Austria and has received numerous awards
for his wines and winemaking skills.
His distinctive, top-quality wines, grown on outstanding
soils of lime and conglomerate, serve as an example of
the very best Austria can provide. The practice of organic
viticulture is an interplay of instinct, readiness to take
risks and trust in nature. The aim is to create a natural
balance between soil, plants, animals, humans and to
strengthen the natural defense mechanisms of the vines.
The Grüner Veltliner grape is the pride of Austria and
thrives in the soils and climate that can only be found
here. The primary fruit flavors in Grüner Veltliner are lime,
lemon, pear and grapefruit. There is also a green and
herbaceous flavor that is often described as white pepper.
WINE MAKING
The grapes first undergo four hours of skin contact
fermentation to extract as much of the fruit aromas as
possible. After fermentation the wine is left to rest on the
lees for four months, further enhancing the smoothness
and texture of the wine.
FOOD PAIRING
This smooth, fruity, and mouthwateringly crisp wine with
intense flavors pairs with a broad range of food: salads,
chicken, cooked or grilled vegetables, fish and seafood
dishes as well with Asian spices.
Serving temperature 6–8 °C.
