The Goldeck brand itself holds the distinction of being Austria's oldest protected wine brand. The wine is made exclusively from the Grüner Veltliner grape, a signature varietal of Austria. The production adheres to the Méthode Traditionnelle, a method of sparkling wine production involving a second fermentation in the bottle, a technique pioneered in Austria by the winery's founder, Robert Alwin Schlumberger, who was trained in Champagne.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
Goldeck Grüner Veltliner Dry Sparkling is produced using the Méthode Traditionnelle, a process that involves a secondary fermentation within the bottle to create effervescence. Following this, the wine undergoes aging on its lees for a minimum of 12 months. This technique is a cornerstone of the producer's winemaking philosophy, which prioritizes quality through traditional methods and the use of 100% Austrian grapes.
