Ried Lamm

Grüner Veltliner

2023

1ÖTW Erste Lage Kamptal DAC

Impressive, multifaceted bouquet marked by noble reduction, fine yeasty (and a touch of toasty) spice with flinty minerals, while, when opening up after several hours showing hints of white flowers, pome fruit, green nuts and a whiff of exotic fruit; starting creamy, then fresh, bone dry, and if not ‘juicy’ then truly mouth-watering, again with many fragrant hints of divers fruit (like above), followed by minerals and spice, very impressive too is the great balance, elegance and persistence until the almost salty final: This is finest, cool climate white wine!

The Lamm vineyard has a soil of chalky clay and loess on siltstone. It is a south facing slope bordering the east of the “Heiligenstein” – one of the warmest sites in our wine growing area.

Grapes from this site reach a high degree of ripeness and concentration, which bring a generous expression more generally associated with Burgundy varieties. While “Lamm” is the quintessence of a monumental Grüner Veltliner, it abandons the lightness and prickle that Grüner Veltliner usually stands for.

The 2023 vintage
Charm, abundance, structure and depth already in the entry level The year had started rather late for our vines. Sprouting was delayed by cool and dry weather, in April. By coincidence, this happily prevented damage by a cold northern air stream, which heavily affected early flowering fruits like apricots. In Kamptal we received the long sought after rain in mid-April and for 2023 this also meant the end of drought. At first, the green cover was flourishing and later, still in May, the slightly late yet vital sprouting took place. Around the 10th of June, under changeable weather conditions, our vineyards started to blossom, about at...

Maturation

Physiologically ripe and botrytis-free grapes were harvested in small cases at the end of November at low temperatures and transported as expediently as possible into the winery. Grapes are handled carefully without the use of pumps,then slowly and gently pressed to allow some skin contact yet avoiding the transfer of too harsh tannins or cloudy residues into the must.

The must ferments in 2-3 years old 300 liter Austrian oak (and partly new acacia) casks. After fermentation the wine is racked into 2500 liter oak or acacia barrels, together with 5-10% of the lees where it remains until bottling at the end of August of the following year.

Food pairing recommendation

A versatile wine that once matured, matches starters of all kinds; calf’s liver with fruits or even in combination with vegetables like onions; all types of roasted or boiled meats; mildly spiced Asian dishes, well-seasoned fish and roasted goose ore duck; mature “GV Lamm”  accompanies semi mature cheeses such as cheddar or medium aged goat cheese.
