Barbara Öhlzelt

Austrian Riesling and Grüner Veltliner from Niederösterreich's Weinland.

Barbara Öhlzelt produces wines from Weinland in Niederösterreich, Austria's largest wine region. The winery's portfolio centers on the white varieties that define the area: Riesling and Grüner Veltliner, both aromatic and mineral-driven expressions of Austrian terroir. The Riesling Heiligenstein and Grüner Veltliner Seeberg stand as flagship bottlings, each rated 90 points by prestige critics Falstaff and Wine Spectator. The winery also makes Gut Gegen Nordwind Glattauers Gemischte Satze, a field blend of Sylvaner, Roter Veltliner, Pinot Blanc, and Grüner Veltliner—a traditional Austrian approach that captures complexity through mixed plantings. These wines reflect Weinland's continental climate and diverse soils, where cool nights preserve acidity and mineral character in the glass.
