About Waldschütz
Waldschütz has worked the Kamptal since 1871, building an organic program across white and red varietals. Grüner Veltliner anchors the portfolio, with Riesling, Gelber Muskateller, Sauvignon Blanc, Weissburgunder, Zweigelt, and Neuburger rounding the cellar. The Grüner Veltliner Ried Grub 1ÖTW earned 94 Falstaff points. Steinvision, aged 36 months in a 2,000 kg natural stone barrel, represents the house's work. The wines reach Austria, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Denmark, Belgium, England, Czech Republic, Poland, the USA, Canada, and Sweden. Visits by reservation.
