Description
The Leitner Souvignier gris & Muscaris PIWI Duett 2023 is an expressive, organically produced white wine from Austria that ideally combines modern winemaking and sustainability. This cuvée consists of 75% Souvignier gris and 25% Muscaris - two PIWI grape varieties (fungus-resistant vines) that stand for environmentally friendly, future-oriented cultivation. The reduced need for plant protection of these varieties makes viticulture more resource-friendly and sustainable - in line with modern, responsible enjoyment.
The wine is matured classically in stainless steel tanks in order to bring out the varietal aromas clearly and unadulterated. The result is a wine that can be drunk now, but also has a fine ageing potential of up to two years. The combination of freshness, structure and aromatic depth makes it versatile - whether for everyday drinking, with light dishes or as a stylish companion for festive occasions.
With an alcohol content of 13% vol., its clear fruit and a practical screw cap, PIWI Duett presents itself as a modern, easy-drinking organic white wine with a future. It impressively demonstrates that sustainability and quality are not a contradiction in terms, but complement each other perfectly in the glass.

Tasting notes:
In the glass, the wine shines in a light golden yellow with slight greenish reflections. The nose reveals an elegant interplay of aromas of ripe pears, white flowers, nutmeg and exotic notes such as lychee and mango. The Muscaris grape lends the bouquet fruitiness and floral freshness, while the Souvignier gris provides depth, structure and fine herbal notes. On the palate, the PIWI Duet is lively, juicy and well-balanced - with clear fruit, moderate acidity and a pleasant, mineral-tinged finish.
This wine is an excellent accompaniment to fresh, light dishes such as salads with goat's cheese, vegetable quiche or grilled fish. It also accompanies Asian dishes with lemongrass or coconut milk, risotto with green asparagus or poultry dishes with herbs. The PIWI Duet is also a convincing pleasure on its own - ideal for sunny afternoons, picnics or convivial evenings with friends. (automated translation)
