Tegernseerhof

Wachau Riesling and Grüner Veltliner from Austria's Danube Valley.

Tegernseerhof sits in Austria's Wachau, a steep-terraced valley where the Danube carves through limestone and schist. The winery works with the region's signature varieties: Riesling and Grüner Veltliner, both suited to the cool continental climate and mineral soils. The Kellerberg Riesling Smaragd and Steinertal Riesling Smaragd represent the winery's focus on Riesling at the highest ripeness level—the Smaragd designation marks wines of concentrated fruit and alcohol above 12.5%. Alongside these sits the Steiner Pfaffenberg Grüner Veltliner, capturing the white pepper and stone-fruit character the variety expresses in Wachau's terroir. Prestige critics including Falstaff, Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, and Decanter have assessed the winery's portfolio.
