Weingut Bründlmayer

Pure, juvenile, restrained yet intense first impression, a multifaceted bouquet featuring fresh citrus peel, fresh stone (white peaches) and pome fruit, a hint of white flowers, hay, green tealeaf and yeasty spice; very fresh and very dry before the palate reveals the fruit tones mentioned before; this wine is vigorous though fine and precise, densely structured and perfectly balanced not by residual sugar but by its sugar free extract, this Riesling is no power pack nor a palate pleaser but a natural authority as it remains full of firm tension until the final marked by again hints of bright fruit, spice and mineral almost salty impressions: an outstanding vintage from the heart of the Heiligenstein, a wine with an incredible lifespan ahead.

Pure, juvenile, restrained, while showing an unbelievably complex bouquet: citrus peel, fresh stone (white peaches) and pome fruit, a hint of white flowers, hay and yeasty spice; very fresh and dry with a perfectly balancing hint of residual sugar; the palate confirms the impressions mentioned above; fine and precise without boasting force, while densely structured and perfectly balanced, until the final marked by again hints of fruit, spice and almost salty mineral impressions: fine and precise!

Initially rather reserved, but then opens quickly to reveal a mature and almost oily bouquet with pineapple, melon and yellow peach. Seductive and intense array of yellow fruit, it captivates with purity and highly concentrated flavours that coat the palate without appearing melancholic. Exhibits the attributes of a great Riesling in every phase. Potential for decades.

Finely coiled, extremely refined fruit of honeydew melon & white peach, some lime peel here as well, a bit contained despite the great ripeness. At once seeking the depths, discreet & distinguished, still a little more restrained than the Lyra. On the palate, however, the wine takes off, coiled & concentrated fruit flavours – unparalleled rich texture, always concentrated but always refreshing; simultaneously clear as a bell & quite complex, scores big for its vitality & breeding, an exceptional Riesling here, with great length & a great future.

Captivating nose with the expected array of aromas including pineapple, milk chocolate and a touch of cantaloupe melon. Fully ripened, but not too voluptuous, allowing a glimpse of future harmony. Sweetly extracted and vivacious with salt-mineral facets. Genteel elegance and crystal-clear expression. This will evolve into a truly great Riesling with its full potential to be measured in decades.

Right from the beginning - a captivating, gorgeous nose with scents of candied pineapple and milk chocolate followed by yellow peach. Mature and powerful, but never overwhelming. Very expressive palate with fruit sweetness and - once again – even with all the power is defined more by finesse. Beautiful tension and suspense, showing a density usually present in a big dessert wine, but without botrytis. An almost festive character complemented by the vibrant, racy acidity. Enough reserves for many, many years to come.

An exemplary Riesling right from the beginning: notes of candied pineapple and milk chocolate, some nougat and hazelnut, yet clear and shiny with gorgeous nuances and numerous facets; surprisingly light fruity tint; highly elegant; a truly individual Riesling whose elegant charisma and early fruit charm can leave you almost speechless. Extremely dense and expressive, gliding across the palate with perfectly balanced acidity. An immensely long, razor-sharp wine, wonderful for festive occasions; obviously a Riesling that will live for many decades !

Full bouquet of peaches and pineapple and honey as well as mineral and spicy flavors; on the palate full-bodied and concentrated, pineapple dried apricots roasted chocolate beans and white peaches honey flowers, powerful although pure and precise, balanced with elegant acidity and multilayered extract, excellent grip, very long spicy and mineral finish, and really promising potential.
