Product Notes

Weingut Weszeli Riesling Loiserberg is a dry white wine made from Riesling grapes grown in the Loiserberg vineyard of Kamptal, Austria. The vineyard is situated on steep, rocky south-facing slopes that provide excellent drainage and exposure to the sun. This results in grapes that are rich in flavor and acidity, which in turn create a wine that is crisp and refreshing with a hint of minerality. The wine boasts notes of green apple, lime, and pear, as well as a floral aroma that is characteristic of Riesling varietals. With a medium body and a long, clean finish, Weingut Weszeli Riesling Loiserberg is a versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of foods, including seafood, poultry, and Asian cuisine.

Tasting Notes

Elegant fruit melange of citrus fruits and stone fruit with a little pineapple, a bit ciabatta, fragrant, delicately floral, balanced and discreet; juicy middle weight, elegantly built, a lot of fruit in the entree, tighter behind with a fine bite and a pleasantly dry finish.

About the Winery

Weingut Weszeli

The Weingut Weszeli wine brand has carved a niche for itself in the wine industry of Austria. During 1679, the Summerer family founded and established this winery in the scenic region of Langenlois in Austria. For many years, the wines were created here with utmost dedication and minimalistic intervention process by the family. 

In the year 1997, this place was acquired by Davis Weszeli; however, the Summerer family still didn’t let go of their heritage. They worked in tandem with Weszeli to ensure that the family’s ancient tradition and heritage were followed in the wine-making process. Today, about 300 years later, the Weingut Weszeli Wines are known for their authentic character and flavour because they are created in the most natural way possible.  Rupert Summerer and David Weszeli are the people who currently manage this winery.

The Riesling and Gruner Veltliner vines are spread over 30 hectares of fertile soil. No chemicals are used in the process of cultivation or winemaking. The vineyards are located in Kamptal, which is outside the Langenlois village. While Gruner grape varietals account for 80% of the production here, the Riesling grape varietals account for the remaining 20% of the production.

The most popular wines crafted here are the following:

  • Weszeli Riesling Loiserberg – Made from Riesling grapes cultivated on the southern slopes of Loiserberg; comes with a herb-rich aroma that has a peachy flavour to it
  • Weszeli Gruner Veltliner Steingarten – Made from hand-picked Gruner Veltliner grapes cultivated in the Steinhaus column; comes with flavours of apple and grapefruit
