Description
The aptly named Spiegel is a true reflection of the Styrian terroir - it's fresh, juicy and the most perfect summer sipper. Radiant straw yellow in color with notes of gooseberry, freshly cut grass, nettle and elderflower. The wine is youthful, but still has subtle and elegant notes of spice.
The grapes undergo the optimal ripening conditions, with both sufficient sunshine and a cool breeze in the summer to prevent sunburn. The wine remains fresh while still having a complexity, there is an elegant minerality that carries through, complemented by fine and integrated exotic notes. To preserve and emphasize this unique character, the alcoholic fermentation takes place in a stainless steel tank.
Weingut Polz is a 4th generation winemaking family with a rich history rooted in the Südsteiermark region. They focus on producing wines rooted in a sense of place, a reflection of the region and grape variety.

Wijnhuis
Weingut Polz is located on the Grassnitzberg in Austria's southern wine region, Südsteiermark. This family business has a rich history that dates back to 1912, when Johann Polz took his first steps in viticulture. Today, the winery is run by the fourth generation, who continue to improve the quality of their grapes and wines with sustainable viticulture and modern technologies.
Although Austria is known for Grüner Veltliner, it is the Sauvignon Blanc grape that steals the show in Südsteiermark. About one fifth of the vineyard area in this region is planted with this grape variety. Sauvignon blanc thrives in the hilly landscape and the relatively mild climate with cool nights. The wines range from fresh and fruity to subtle and elegant.
Weingut Polz offers a wide range of wines, including the well-known Sauvignon Blanc, Weissburgunder and Morillon (local name for Chardonnay). All grapes are harvested by hand. The vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks or large wooden barrels. Everything is aimed at preserving the grape's own aromas and freshness.
In addition to making beautiful wines, Weingut Polz is also focused on sustainability and the preservation of biodiversity, and they try to minimize the impact of their winegrowing activities on the environment. They are currently in the process of converting to organic viticulture.
