Weingut Loimer 1st läge Langenlois Ried Käferberg Grüner Veltliner 2021
Kamptal, Niederösterreich, Weinland Österreich, AustriaFrom Langenlois’ Ried Käferberg, at 310–345m, this Grüner is from vines 15-57 years, rooted in sand, clay, and sea sediments on primary rock. This was whole cluster pressed and macerated over 24 hours before native ferment in large oak barrels over 1 month. It remained in oak on full lees for 11 months without SO2, and then went into stainless for 8 months on light lees. It was bottled unfiltered. The wood is quite evident, structuring this powerful wine, one imbued with lemon verbena, green apple, powerful flake salts wrapping around a generous core, with white honey and white pepper on the finish. Many elements of fine white Bourgogne here, including an alluring kiss of reduction. A beaut.Tasted: 11 November 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $81.00 | 750ml | consignment |
