The Almásy Collection is an exclusive portfolio of top-quality wines made from the grape varieties of central & eastern Europe – both classic & exotic – selected by Sarah Heller MW & Groszer Wein. Almásy: Wine Without Borders reaches back into the history of the noble Hungarian family Almásy. The collection reimagines the wine cellar that might have greeted guests to Bernstein Castle had the territory never been divided. It includes regional classics like bright, bracing Grüner Veltliner and juicy Zweigelt, but also historic sites and varieties too long overlooked, made with partners who share our goal of revitalizing this heritage. Each wine is named according to where it stands relative to Bernstein Castle, the symbol of this project to rebind broken ties. Grüner Veltliner is the most important grape variety grown in Austria. It is a spontaneous cross between Traminer and a local grape variety called St. Georgs Rebe.
Pale lemon with green hints. Beeswax and green apple on the nose with a hint of earthy complexity. The palate is spritzy and refreshing, but with a waxy, rich texture. Finishes with a refreshing hint of lemon sherbet.
