Note di degustazione
The Kamptal’s iconic Grüner Veltliner vineyard has seldom if ever had to rise to a challenge like that of the other Gobelsburg 2013s from this variety. It succeeds in part by offering scents and flavors such as make one wonder how this could come from grapes. Hyacinth and freesia in the nose are mingled with nuances of alkaline and wet stone that then, along with toasted grain and mouthwatering veal stock, dominate the palate proceedings. That’s not to suggest that this wine lacks fruit. Apple, quince and honeydew offer a luscious presence, with complete transparency to mossy forest floor and mineral intrigue. Bittersweet floral perfume adds to the wine's creamy, glossy inner-mouth allure. Rather than the energy and dynamic so memorable in the comparable Renner, this delivers an enveloping, buoyant wave of finishing flavor.

Magnum. Bright green gold. Creamy substantial, well-balanced nose with more development and opulence than most. Just a hint of dill on the finish and light astringency. Medium persistence. Lightly spicy and almost full bodied. A well-made quite forward example. (JR)
Moosbrugger's 2013 Ried Lamm Veltliner is a stunning wine proving the grand cru status of the site, which is situated at the bottom of the southeastern part of the famous Heiligenstein where a higher clay proportion makes it a perfect terroir for Grüner Veltliner. Cool, precise and very complex on the nose, it displays spicy mineral and herbal flavors with subtle fruit delicately integrated. Fermented and aged until July in traditional domestic oak barrels of 2,500 liters, this is a full-bodied, pure and complex wine combing power with piquancy and finesse, as well as a stimulating and lingering salinity in the extraordinary long finish. This great wine tastes like melting stones but is also fruit intense, serene and very elegant. A stunning wine indeed and a must buy.
