STEININGER KITTMANNSBERG GRUNER VELTLINER $34.99
The palate shows spicy hints of nettle and a fresh bouncy zesty backbone of lemon and grapefruit,
which makes it all the more appetizing.

STEININGER ROSE' OF CABERNET $15.99
Pale Rose in color. On the nose, it's an elegant mix of flowers, fruit and tender greens.
The taste of ripe raspberry, black currant and violets fills the palate.
Finishes with crisp acidity and great balance. Refreshing and mouthwatering. 
Pairings: salads with seafood, salmon and also ham dishes.
But it also gives great pleasure as an aperitif or as a fresh summer wine to be enjoyed on the terrace.


STEININGER ZWEIGELT $17.99
Perfect with Charred Tomato Soup!!
The red grape variety is a cross of Blaufrankisch and St. Laurent from the year 1922 and makes up 14% of the entire Austrian vineyard area. This makes it one of the most planted red grape variety in Austria. Originally the name of this grape was "Rotburger" and it was named Zweigelt after Professor Fritz Zweigelt who worked at the Viniculture institute Stift Klosterneuburg using his last name. This is a delicious and impressively concentrated Zweigelt. Its flavor of black raspberry is underlined by good acidity. It feels seamless, silky, and ripe with supple tannins


HILLINGER HILLSIDE SELECT UNFILTERED $24.99
60% Syrah 30% Merlot and 10% Zweigelt.   
A dark ruby color with purple rim, the nose showing a combination of fruit and spice of blackberries, raspberries and cherries underlined by black pepper.  Topped up with velvet flavor of cloves.
On the palate the above flavors are supported by delicate roasted flavors with perfect harmonic acidity. 

The discreet wooden flavors support the perfect tannic structure, and a long lasting finish.
