Suckling om: Grüner Veltliner Federspiel Im Weingebirge (gefüllt 2021)

This six-year-old, medium-bodied gruner veltliner is remarkably lively and has no trouble standing next to the wines of the latest vintage! Striking mirabelle and dried-thyme character, plus excellent harmony and nice herbal freshness at the finish make this very appealing. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold. Screw cap. 92/100

Parker om: Grüner Veltliner Federspiel Im Weingebirge (gefüllt 2021)

The 2015 Im Weingebirge Grüner Veltliner Federspiel (Late Release) was bottled from an old 69-hectoliter oak vat in February this year, so after five years of barrel aging. The wine is bright and clear in color and opens with an intense, crystalline and finely yeasty bouquet of perfectly ripe fruits and crunchy stone aromas. Round and juicy on the palate, with rather mild acidity but a firm mineral and phenolic structure, this is still a rich and powerful wine with fine tannins and mouth-filling volume. It is still too young to unfold all its talents but will refine with further bottle age. 12.5% alcohol. Tasted at the domaine in June 2021. 92/100

Galloni om: Grüner Veltliner Federspiel Im Weingebirge (gefüllt 2021)

At barely over 12 percent alcohol, no wonder this is nearly as buoyant as its Hefeabzug counterpart, or as the 2014 Im Weingebirge (which was marginally higher in alcohol). Along with its lift, this displays clarity and infectious juiciness, offering both riper pear and apple fruit than the corresponding Hefeabzug plus similarly invigoratingly incisive cress, crunchy cucumber, mouthwatering salinity and crystalline stoniness. Varietally typical hints of wax bean and lentil on the nose persist through this bottling’s long and refreshing finish. 927100
