Urgestein means "primary rock," and that's the whole idea here: dry Grüner Veltliner grown on the ancient gneiss and mica schist that gives Austria's Kamptal its backbone. This is Jurtschitsch's stony, everyday-luxury pour, drawn from across the estate's oldest bedrock rather than a single hillside. Alwin and Stefanie farm organically and biodynamically in Langenlois, ferment with wild yeast, and keep the sulfur light, so what lands in the glass tastes like the place and not the cellar. It's the bottle to reach for when you want the real Grüner experience without climbing into cru territory. A savvy pour by the case, and a serious step up from the supermarket stuff.

Antonio Galloni

91 points

"The 2024 Grüner Veltliner Urgestein is picked this year from the Steinberg on gneiss, the Steinriedel, which usually goes into sparkling wine and parts of Loiserberg. A perfume of fern and salty apple skin appears on the nose. The palate is smooth, with salty citrus, apple skin and a touch of fern. Wonderfully lip-smacking despite its undoubted potency and ripeness." —Anne Krebiehl, MW

"Fresh and expressive, with flavors of quince and delicate orchard blossom. The palate is balanced and precise, lifted by lively acidity and finishing with moderate length. Lightly textured, approachable, and clean, showing charm and clarity." —Aleks Zecevic

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Wiener schnitzel, roast chicken with herbs, or a spread of spring vegetables — asparagus, peas, and fresh cheeses.

Tasting Profile

Dry and crisp, with orchard fruit, a lick of white pepper, and a stony, mineral edge. Medium-bodied and fresh.
