Pairs well with:

  • Grüner Veltliner in a dry and fresh style pairs very well with roast chicken.
  • Riesling (medium-bodied) style pairs remarkably well with white meat.
  • Alternative choices might include a Gemischter Satz, fruity Zierfandler and a vibrant Pinot Blanc.
  • During the summer, or at lunch time, a rosé or Schilcher rosé are ideal.
  • It is not only the Styrians that opt for a pleasant Morillon (Chardonnay) or a Sauvignon Blanc with their roast chicken.
  • The Sulmtal capon with a single-vineyard Gelber Muskateller is a real treat.
