JAMES SUCKLING 98 POINTS - Sensationally fine and elegant for a high-end gruner veltliner, this smells like a whole garden of herbs (don’t forget the sage). Super-racy, cool and stony for this variety with not a hint of the fat that weighs down so many wines of this category. What a stunningly refreshing finish. From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drink or hold.

JAMES SUCKLING 95 - 97 POINTS The 2023 Gruner Veltliner Steinertal is on terraces that still have some loess mixed with weathered gneiss in this cool, ventilated site. Green Conference pair and fresh chervil are fragrant, fresh and creamy on the nose, almost with a sense of creamy lemon balm. The palate pushes ahead with its white pepper spiciness and arrow-like freshness. The 2023 is beautifully streamlined, exquisitely fresh, lip-smacking and totally appetizing. (Bone-dry).
