Why it matters
The producer
Weingut Markus Huber works across a range led by Grüner Veltliner, made in several styles as Traisental DAC and Traisental DAC Reserve. Bottle-fermented sparkling wines and fine brandies sit alongside the still wines. In years with favourable weather, the cellar also produces Trockenbeerenauslese.
Place and vineyards
Where the wines begin
Alte Setzen, Berg, Engelsberg, Hochschopf, Obere Steigen, Rothenbart and Zwirch are among the estate's named vineyards. The vineyard soils are limestone conglomerate with a loess layer.
Wines to know
