2018 Brundlmayer Gruner Veltliner Ried Lamm 750ml

Located in New York

HK$736

SKU 155713 Categories ,
From one of the warm sites in the Kamptal, this isn’t your typical light brisk easy sipping gruner; this has a lot of body and is a very serious expression that can age wonderfully over the coming years.

Reviews & Scores
Bründlmayer's iconic, radiant, dark golden-yellow 2018 Grüner Veltliner Ried Lamm 1ÖTW displays a deep, pure, fresh and flinty, even slightly floral yet concentrated, intense and spicy, still untamed and darker-toned bouquet of crushed stones, yellow stone fruit and herbs. Lush, round and intense but pure and mineral on the crystalline palate, this is a full-bodied and tight, very concentrated and powerful Lamm with lively lemon freshness encountering phenolic and mineral elements. This is a sleeping giant and needs time, but it is among the most impressive Veltliners of the vintage. 14.5% alcohol. Tasted three times: at Schloss Grafenegg, at the domain in September 2019 and at home in October.

 Ried Lamm sits at the far eastern edge of the Heiligenstein vineyard, a warm spot with deep soils of chalky clay and loess. In 2018, the Bründlmayers harvested their parcel at the end of October, when the grapes were very ripe yet still free of botrytis; they then fermented the juice in 300-liter casks (mostly Austrian oak, with some new acacia barrels), leaving it on the fine lees until the following summer. Right now, the oak is the first thing that reads in the wine, a rich, deep scent of freshly sawed wood. But give it a few hours open, and the oak subsides, revealing a delicious mix of smoky lees, browned butter and lemon supported by a firm mineral base. It’s a huge wine, Burgundian in its leesy, wood-driven character, grüner in its soil-driven texture and flavors, and absolutely delicious when taken all together. This should age well, and make a fine match for roast goose at a holiday meal.

Impressive notes of flint and complex herbs here with a powerful, greenish array of fruit in behind. The palate delivers a very chiseled, rich and deeply concentrated feel with a toasty, glossy feel to the long, fresh and majestic finish. Drink or hold.
