Up-and-coming young winemaker Markus Huber teamed up with Lenz Moser who comes from a long line of top winemakers to create their own label, Lenzmark, in 2020. The duo realised that the Gruner Veltliner grape was loved in the German-speaking world, but had yet to make its big debut on the global stage. Markus and Lenz have responded to this challenge by crafting a new style of Gruner which would combine complexity, harmony, power and elegance all in one glass.

Their New Chapter Gruner is crafted with top quality fruit from the Niederösterreich, with the majority coming from the Traisental Valley where Markus Huber’s winery is located. The vineyards here are planted on terraces on steep slopes where the meagre soils put pressure on the vines, producing small quantities of very concentrated fruit. Once in the winery the must is fermented in stainless steel tanks and left to mature on the lees before bottling.

Guava, pineapple, bright citrus and apple characterise the nose while the first sip reveals a zesty spritz of freshness, a light and elegant body, and a pure, clean finish with a subtle stony minerality. The graceful, refreshing flavour profile makes for a fantastic aperitif or partner for grilled fish, sushi, salads, and creamy cheeses.
