Note di degustazione
Cork. This smells as if there is some definite oak influence here – spicy and creamy – very inviting but not immediately obviously varietal. On the palate, that same very definite oak influence giving an extra dimension. A lovely wine with depth, length and plenty of stone fruit. Elegant, fluid and long with a fresh finish. Excellent balance but not for those who want their Grüners unoaked. (JH)

Intensely yellow in color, the barrel sample of the 2016 Ried Lamm 1ÖTW Grüner Veltliner offers a very deep and concentrated, slightly oaky but clear, fresh and lemon-flavored bouquet with lime zest and lemon grass aromas. This is a spicy Burgundian style of Grüner Veltliner, and this is also the case on the palate that is dominated by its pure, complex and vital mineral character and its ripe but discreet fruit. The finish (without having any hints of sweetness) reveals great finesse and purity as well as a noble oak quality that reminds me of the finest Cognacs and Armagnacs. The finish is dry, tight, pure and enormously salty, with slight toast aromas and great tension. This is a great Austrian terroir wine that was fermented with natural yeasts in stainless steel, whereas it was aged in partly new and partly used 300-liter barrels and 1200-liter oak casks. The 2016 is scheduled to be bottled in late July/early August 2017.
