Ingrid Groiss

The wines of Ingrid Groiss--from Austria's Weinvertel--continue to prove the transparency that can be achieved through hands-off winemaking. Instead of reflecting stylistic choices that can be granted through intervention in the cellar, Groiss' wines reflect the spirit and energy of the grapes, the land and Ingrid herself.
