🍷 Setzer Riesling 2023 Dry White Wine is a dry white wine from Lower Austria, produced by the family estate in Hohenwarth in the Weinviertel. The 2023 vintage combines an inviting fruit profile with a satisfying finish, presented in a 750ml bottle at 13% alcohol. It suits a relaxed aperitif just as comfortably as a carefully prepared meal.
🍏 Expect ripe green apple, yellow fruit and delicate floral notes, with apricot adding a generous stone-fruit character. The producer emphasises harmonious acidity, giving the fruit a fresh frame without taking over the palate. This is a lovely style for anyone who enjoys aromatic white wine with both energy and an approachable, rounded impression.
🏡 The Setzer estate dates to 1705 and has remained closely connected to Hohenwarth and its vineyards. Its Riesling is made with temperature-controlled fermentation and maturation in stainless steel tanks. This approach keeps the attention on the grape’s fruit and floral expression. The bottle uses a practical screw cap and the wine is vegan.
🍽️ Serve Setzer Riesling 2023 Dry White Wine alongside asparagus dishes or roast chicken, the producer’s suggested matches. A simple roast with vegetables makes a particularly easy starting point: the wine’s freshness can brighten the meal while its ripe fruit adds warmth to each mouthful. It is equally enjoyable shared over a leisurely conversation before dinner.
❄️ We recommend serving at 8–10°C, then letting the glass warm gently so its aromas unfold. Avoid serving it ice-cold throughout the meal, as that can hide its floral and apricot character. Setzer Riesling offers a straightforward introduction to this Austrian grape expression, with origin, vintage and dry style all clearly defined.
