Langenloiser Berg Vogelsang is located on the Loiserberg, but curves to the southwest and is adjacent to a mixed forest – because of its diverse bird population called “mountain Vogelsang”. The soil at the Langenloiser Berg Vogelsang is a subspecies of the Gföhl gneiss, strictly speaking a Loisberg “zoisite amphibolite” (prehistoric rock) with grenades (semiprecious stones) and mica schist. Fermented in stainless steel, then racked into a mix of large used oak & stainless.
A medium-bodied white with crushed stones, sliced apples, white rosemary and white cherries on the nose, with some blanched almonds. Creamy, firm and mineral, with a dry and stony finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
Stony Assyrtiko to a T. Stone dust and citrus. With terrific fruit intensity at the core. Top-notch and benchmark Santorini Assyrtiko. Intense, persistent, mouth-watering.
Intensely aromatic and characteristically smoky, with marked reduction, a style that Dog Point have mastered so brilliantly. That smokiness is notable yet not excessive even if it is highly stylised. Behind the struck match is vibrant grapefruit and pear,...
The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc has a zesty and vibrant nose, with notes of juicy citrus and makrut lime underpinned by subtle white nectarine and passionfruit notes. The palate is mouthwatering, with ripe vibrant passionfruit and citrus at the fore. These meld with tropical hints of peach and guava, gently balanced by stony saline notes.
Just bottled with 12.5% stated alcohol, the incredibly charming 2023 Grüner Veltliner Terrassen opens with an irresistible, pure, bright and intense as well as coolish and aromatic bouquet of white seed fruits yet also a saline background. Lean, fresh and...
Brundlmayer's 2020 Ried Heiligenstein 1OTW Kamptal Riesling is the only Heiligenstein shown here, so no Lyra and no Alte Reben, which I assume will be released a year later. The nose is very clear and bright in its aromas but still discreet in everything...
Enticingly nose with complex aromas of fresh garden flowers and dried flowers, also dried and fresh pear. Racy and driving with an exciting cassis freshness on the very focused palate. Very stony finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
