Weingut Weninger Szürke és Fehér MMXXI Bio white

Weingut Weninger Szürke és Fehér MMXXI Bio is a characterful organic white from Sopron that brings together Pinot Gris (Grauburgunder) and Pinot Blanc (Weißburgunder) in a fresh, textural blend. Made by Weninger Pincészet, a pioneer of organic viticulture in the region, this cuvée captures the cool, borderland climate between Hungary and Austria in a vibrant, contemporary style. It’s a wine that balances precision and drinkability, offering plenty of interest for both casual wine lovers and dedicated enthusiasts.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, Szürke és Fehér MMXXI Bio typically shows a pale to medium straw-yellow hue with subtle copper reflections from the Pinot Gris component. On the nose, expect notes of ripe pear, yellow apple, quince and white peach, layered with hints of citrus zest, almond blossom and a gentle herbal lift. There’s an underlying mineral tone that reflects the stony soils of Sopron, giving the aromatics tension and focus. The palate is dry, medium-bodied and finely textured, with a ripe yet brisk acidity that keeps the wine lively and refreshing. Flavours echo the nose: juicy orchard fruits, a touch of stone fruit, and delicate spice, supported by a light creaminess from time on the lees. The finish is clean and slightly saline, inviting another sip. Enjoy this vintage over the next 2–4 years to capture its fresh fruit and subtle complexity, though its structure should allow it to develop a bit more nuance in bottle in the short term.

Production
Szürke és Fehér MMXXI Bio is sourced from organically farmed vineyards around Sopron, a region known for its cooler climate, moderating breezes from nearby Lake Neusiedl, and mineral-rich soils that bring clarity and energy to the wines. Weninger Pincészet works with low yields and careful hand-harvesting to ensure only healthy, ripe bunches reach the cellar. In keeping with the estate’s philosophy, the grapes are gently pressed and fermented with as little intervention as possible, typically with native yeasts and without excessive new oak, allowing the natural character of Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc to shine. A period of aging on the fine lees helps build texture and complexity while preserving the wine’s bright, precise profile.

Food & Serving
This organic blend is highly versatile at the table. It pairs beautifully with grilled or pan-fried freshwater fish, seafood pasta, poultry dishes, and vegetable-driven plates such as risotto, asparagus, or roasted root vegetables. Soft cheeses and mild goat’s cheese also work well with its fresh acidity and subtle creaminess. Serve chilled at around 9–11 °C; a quick splash in a carafe or a brief opening 15–20 minutes before serving can help the aromatics open up, but extended decanting is not necessary.

Producer
Weninger Pincészet is part of the Weninger family’s cross-border wine story, with roots in both Austria and Hungary and a strong focus on expressing terroir through organic and biodynamic farming. In Sopron, they have been instrumental in revitalising the region’s reputation, moving away from volume production towards thoughtful, site-driven wines that highlight local conditions and Central European grape varieties. Known especially for their work with Blaufränkisch, the Weningers have earned a respected place among the leading producers in the wider Pannonian basin, championing low-intervention cellar work, careful vineyard stewardship, and clear, authentic expressions of place in both red and white wines.
