Organic Austrian Imports Arrive for Summer

By May 31, 2021Rhode Island, Top News

Best Beverage welcomed the Austrian-imported organic and vegan wines of Weingut Oppenauer. Owned by the Oppenauer family, with a 200-year-old winemaking tradition, the family-run business is located in Poysdorf, in the Niederösterreich, Weinviertel, region, where the grape varieties grow on 28 hectares of vineyards, some of which are located in the oldest vineyards in Austria. Weingut Oppenauer Grüner Veltliner and Zweigelt each offer a perfect summer companion to lighter and/or grilled meals, sold in 1-liter bottles. The winery shares the same latitude as Champagne and is known for lighter, easy-drinking and fresh styles. The family is guided by a strict philosophy of no chemicals to ensure a healthy ecosystem for their vines and was organic certified in 2003. Yield-oriented pruning, increased green harvesting and biodiverse plantings of flowers and other plants lay the foundation for high-quality fruit.
