Johannes Holzer

Kamptal Grüner Veltliner and Sankt Laurent from Austria's Weinland.

Johannes Holzer produces wines from Kamptal, a region in Niederösterreich known for mineral-driven white wines and elegant reds. The winery's focus centers on Grüner Veltliner, Austria's signature white variety—a wine of green apple, white pepper, and bracing acidity that thrives in cool continental climates. The Grüner Veltliner Riede Stein and Grüner Veltliner Alte Rebe represent the house's work with this grape across different vineyard sites, each capturing the terroir of their respective parcels. The winery also works with Sankt Laurent, a dark-skinned Austrian variety that yields wines of moderate tannin and red-fruit character; the Sankt Laurent Riede Haidsatz demonstrates this approach. Falstaff has rated these wines, recognizing their quality across the portfolio.
