Funkstille Skin Contact is a striking skin-contact white wine from Weinviertel in Austria , crafted from a blend of Grüner Veltliner , Muscat, and other varieties by a 16th-generation producer in Niederösterreich. Vibrant, aromatic, and defined by razor-sharp acidity and a gentle tannic grip, it is one of the most distinctive and characterful wines in the Funkstille range. Why You'll Love It Funkstille, meaning 'radio silence' in German, is a thoughtfully curated range of Austrian wines designed to bring a sense of calm and focus to modern life.

No malolactic fermentation is carried out, but the wine benefits from eight weeks on the lees before gentle fining and cold stabilisation.
