Note di degustazione
Ried Lamm is located in Kammern at the foot of the south-eastern slope of the Heiligenstein mountain. Elevation 210–290 m. The vineyards have a predominantly south-western orientation, although some are also oriented to the south. A warm site. Sandstone. Certified organic. Certified Sustainable Austria. Immediately creamy/spicy impression (this is typically fermented and aged in 300-litre oak, including 30% new). That same impression on the palate, especially now the wine has warmed in the glass, but the oak is well integrated. Big, firmly textured but remarkably fresh and very long with pure pear and citrus fruit. Chewy texture and needs time but this surely has a very long life ahead. Shows the benefit of releasing these wines a year later, especially given the oak. (JH)

The 2022 Grüner Veltliner Ried Lamm was harvested on the eastern slope bordering the Heiligenstien on loess on top of sandstone, fermented and aged in 300-liter barrels with yeast stirring. Smoke and hazelnut on the nose point to oak and reduction in equal measure. Underneath that, some herbal savor shines through. The palate comes in with pristine acidity, edged with stone-fruit ripeness and a smooth, fluid mouthfeel. The yeasty texture is a backdrop for this rounded yet immensely contoured wine that represents freshness, understatement and length. (Bone-dry)
The 2022 Grüner Veltliner Ried Lamm 1ÖTW is deep and pure yet also intense and complex on the rich, lemony and herbal as well as stony and saline nose. Full-bodied, rich and finely tannic on the palate due to the aging in oak, this is a dense and concentrated yet vital, fresh, refined and persistently saline Veltliner from the famous Lamm vineyard that is located at the bottom of the Heiligenstein and thus grown on richer soils. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in March 2024.
