More information on wine critics and ratings

Grown in the esteemed vineyards of Loiserberg, where the vines benefit from the unique microclimate and the mineral-rich soils, this Grüner Veltliner is a product of organic farming practices, reflecting the winery's commitment to sustainability and quality. The vineyard's location, next to the Vogelsang mountain and facing south to southeast, ensures optimal sun exposure, contributing to the grapes' ripeness and flavor intensity. The soil composition, a mix of loess, paragneiss, mica schist, and amphibolite, adds a distinctive mineral note to the wine.

Tasting Notes:

  • Color: Light golden with a hint of green hues.
  • Aroma: The nose is greeted with floral scents reminiscent of Acacia and lemon verbena, alongside a subtle lemon peel freshness.
  • Palate: On the palate, this wine presents a fusion of lemon peel, slight peppery notes, and spice, supported by light tannins and a good balance of acidity. The finish is long, showcasing the wine's elegant structure and complexity.

Weingut Bründlmayer, led by the esteemed Willi Bründlmayer, has been recognized as "the best Austrian winemaker of the last 25 years" by Wine & Spirits Magazine, underlining the winery's influential role in shaping Austrian wine excellence.

Wine-Pairing Ideas: This Grüner Veltliner is versatile, pairing splendidly with dishes that complement its vibrant acidity and minerality. It is an excellent match for vegetable quiche, roasted pork, or veal, enhancing the flavors of both the wine and the food.

James Suckling (JS) : 95 Points (2021)
Very cool nose with a lot of subtle wildflower and herb aromas. Sleek and youthful with stunning mineral vitality, this leaps and bounds across the palate. Stunning vibrancy is married to a slew of wet-stone and Amalfi-lemon character at the very long and straight finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. (9/2022)

Robert Parker (RP) : 92 Points (2021)
From gneiss soils and vinified in large old-oak vats, the 2021 Grüner Veltliner Ried Loiserberg 1ÖTW was whole-cluster pressed with no destemming and combines aromas of fresh-cut grass with aromas of ripe and elegant seed fruit. Lush and elegant on the palate, this is a textural Veltliner with fine phenolic grip and stimulating salinity on the finish. This very elegant and balanced Veltliner was bottled in July of this year. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in September 2022. (SR) (12/2022)

Wine Spectator (WS) : 90 Points (2021)
Features a core of peach, ripe apple and spices, with an acidic lemon-lime beam bringing balance. Gilded with warm toast and spices, this also has a smoky mineral layer that's beautifully integrated, while a kick of fleur de sel and pink grapefruit pith mark the lengthy finish. Drink now through 2027. (8/2023)

Wine Enthusiast (WE) : 96 Points (2019)
Citrus, stone and crushed herb unite on the subtle nose, leaving you thinking of lemon, sage and potentilla. The palate adds fresh, green pear to the mix and pits these flavors against a lovely backdrop of supple, springy and smooth yeastiness. Those herb notions have a salty echo on the long finish. (AK) (3/2021)

A rich and still juvenile bouquet of hay & honey blossoms, melon, yellow fruit with subtle exotic tones, as well as apple and citrus peel, followed by a whiff of peppery and toasty spice, at first fresh and dry but very sappy, with a creamy texture, almost rich, very complex and detailed, i.e. blossom honey, freshly cut citrus, apple and stone fruit, nicely contoured & firmly interwoven, with a long and spicy finish.

Citrus peel, white flowers, stone fruit and gooseberry dominate the graceful aromatic arc, delicate and bright fruit nuances on the palate, dry, fresh and pure with more yellow fruit and great acidity to match leading to a mineral and slightly spicy finish.

A deep fragrance of passion fruit, yuzu citrus and peppermint radiates freshness and vitality and yet immediately drives deep. Highly elegant and distinguished, full of fruit charm and esprit, fills the mouth with bright aromas. Focused and complex all the way into the long finish. Extraordinary ageing potential.

Draws a broad arc that leads from hazel leaves over fully ripe apricot to bergamot orange. Crystal clear and multi-layered, very distinguished and with deep intensity that is still difficult to grasp. Chocolatey fullness and slowly fading oak tannins, but despite all its strength, finesse always sets the tone. A Grüner Veltliner that inspires dreams but shall require time.
