‘Die Leidenshaft’
Grüner Veltliner, Kamptal, Austria
An unbridled joy in a sea of idle ploys, this Austrian, Burgundian-esque stunner is savoury and supple texture at its finest. From within one of the oldest, most globally recognized fine-wine regions of Austria, Anna and Martin Arndorfer have taken the traditions of their two local winemaking families and made them even better with thoughtful biodynamic farming and meticulous winemaking (their gorgeous new cellar is a sight to behold!). This single vineyard comes from an old parcel of the region’s star grape, Grüner Veltliner and is barrel-fermented and aged on the lees for 10 months to bring a delightfully fuller mouthfeel. While we love fresh Grüner for its bright citrus and cracked pepper, here we see a more serious side. Oxidized yellow plum, soaking herbs, apricot puree, spiky acidity, almond pulp, watery blossoms, honey textured and salty minerality.
