Sinfully Good

Forbidden by Laurenz V.

Forbidden Grüner Veltliner brings out the abundant fruitiness of this grape variety. Over a glass, one can ponder whether this wine is sinfully good and should be forbidden like the fruit of paradise or allowed precisely for that reason.

The long era of bone-dry Grüner Veltliners found a counterargument in this wine, and it opens a new perspective on the variety’s wines. The multifaceted fruitiness arises as warm air rises from the Danube to the slopes of Kamptal and Kremstal, and it is complemented by fresh acidity as the cool air from Waldviertel contributes to the conditions.

A delicious social wine that pairs well with savory snacks. With cheeses, Forbidden is excellent both thanks to its acidity, which cuts through fattiness, and its slight sweetness, which suits salty cheeses well. Naturally, it also suits Asian dishes and spicy delicacies.

Brightly fruity, off-dry, nuanced, vibrantly acidic, and balanced. The wine is suitable for vegans.
