Product Overview
92 Points - Vinous:
"The 2023 Grüner Veltliner Fass 4 is from estate fruit only, harvested across the Hengstberg. Ott calls this the classic wine of his estate. It was mainly fermented in large barrels with a smaller proportion of stainless steel. Gentle savor reminds of lichen on wood, with a touch of orange peel, projecting much freshness. There is more body, a touch of pale Mirabelle fruit, with light-footed ripeness and more of that slightly peppery lichen savor. The subtle texture heightens the citrus notions and makes for a lip-smacking finish, always with that subtle, peppery flavor. (Bone-dry)"
91 Points - Wine Spectator:
"Vibrant notes of kumquat, passion fruit and persimmon open up this friendly yet complex version. Notes of savory mineral and spice join midpalate, followed by heather and pine adding allure. It shows good length on the finish." AZ, 8/1/2024
