The 2022 Dürnsteiner Ried Kellerberg Grüner Veltliner opens with a deep, pure, precise yet generous, dense, elegant, very seductive nose with ripe and lush fruit aromas intermingled with saline and flinty notes of crushed stones. Round and juicy as well as textured on the palate, this is a full-bodied, dense and generous yet elegant, finessed and perfectly balanced Veltliner with fine tannins and a long, aromatic and structured finish. 13.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in April 2024.
Brimming with white pepper, star fruit and red gooseberry with just a hint of mango. Compact and concentrated for a village wine, this makes a serious statement on the palate in spite of having just 13% alcohol. Bold, long finish with plenty of spice and stony minerality. Partly from young vines in the terraced top sites of Durnstein plus some parcels of mature vines on the plain. From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
