Vintages New Release Collection – August 15, 2026

Austria’s signature white wine grape, Grüner Veltliner (GREW-ner velt LEE-ner), is quite a character. Sure, it’s got a bit of Sauvignon Blanc’s herbaceous aromatics, a bit of Riesling’s mineral expression, and a bit of Gewürztraminer’s lively spice – but really, Grüner’s got its own thing going on. Vibrant, food-friendly and best served lightly chilled, it’s also perfect for summer. Here’s your chance to check out Grüner from four di†erent Austrian regions.

Wagram was granted its own DAC in 2022. LEFT: An Austrian autumn. TOP: Gardens in Rosenburg Castle.
