A frisky, bone dry Gruner Veltliner that shows an energised tension.

The Ott family has been producing wine since 1889 in the region of Wagram in Lower Austria, just to the East of the triangle of Kremstal, Kamptal and Wachau. The estate has around 28 hectares of vineyards located around Feuersbrunn and Engabrunn and Bernhard Ott now runs the domaine since taking over the reigns from his father in 1995. The vineyards are farmed according to biodynamic principles and 90% are planted to Grüner Veltliner with the remaining 10% being Riesling.
Brilliant pale straw colour with a faint tinge of green around the outskirts and a watery hue. Red apple skin and lime aromas are intermeshed with hints of quince, green apple and slatey mineral notes. Zingy lime and green to red apple fruits dance over a gentle quince, wet slate and mineral back drop. Frisky acidity with a bone dry and racy finish that shows plenty of energised tension.
Drink over the next 2-3 years.
Alc. 11.5%
