Product Description
93 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"Bottled in May 2020, the 2019 Aus den Dörfern Grüner Veltliner / Gemischter Satz shows a clear, coolish, herbal/floral and stony nose with concentrated white fruit aromas rather than yellow, with a multilayered, refined and even more significant Furmint bouquet than the 2018. Round and creamy on the palate, this is an intense but finessed and sustainably salty white blend that has more Welsch and indeed more Furmint, and the Veltliner also ripened slower than last year and has a more coolish character. There are hazelnut notes on the vital and vivacious finish. The tension and freshness make the 2019 finer and more filigreed compared to the 2018. 13% alcohol. Tasted in June 2020."

"A layered, flavorful white with lemon rind, spiced pear and green apple with some mineral undertones. It’s medium-to full-bodied with a tight, creamy palate and a fruity finish. Drink now."
Vinous Reverie Notes
90% Gruner Veltliner and 10% an even blend of Welschriesling, Muskat Ottonel, Weissburgunder, Neuburger & Furmint from organically farmed vineyards surrounding Ruster Berg. Grown on gneiss, schist, limestone and sand. Native yeast and used Stockinger barrels. A fantastic vintage! Just a few miles west of the great shallow lake called the Neusiedlersee (literally, the new settler lake) is the town of St. Margarethen and the winery Rosi Schuster. While Rosi still loves to help in the vineyards, today her son Hannes runs the estate. Hannes' wines always showcase bright fruit and transparently express the terroir of the villages of Sankt Margarethen, Rust and Zagersdorf. Here you will find soils ranging from heavy loam to sandstone, gravel and limestone. The vineyards have been organically certified since 2014 and produce distinctive wines that tell a tale of their place.
