Well this had me thinking of the Nikolaihof’s 2013 Baumepresse Grüner. The refinement, development with freshness, harmony with subtlety and sense of togetherness from a clever élévage.Pretty, perfumed, musk and white flower on citrus oils. A complete palate, flowing, long and fine with transparency and beautifully weighted flavours, gently spiced with a leafy green herb and a fine earthiness. Dry with fine acid. The phenolics here are refined and layered. A ripping example of Grü

Weingut Nikolaihof Grüner Veltliner Federspiel 2022

Grüner Vetliner | Wachau, Austria

Thought to be the oldest documented vineyard, the name “Im Weingebirge”, Wine Mountains, dates back to the 5th Century. The wines from this vineyard are known to have impressive depth and minerality. The soil is varied with loess on the higher terraces and deep topsoil over primary rock lower down the slope. The wine ages on its lees in old barrels, giving it a creamy texture to match the fruit and Grüner spice.**REVIEW OF THE 2020** Previously called Im Weingebirge, the 2020 Gr

Lovely scent of elderflower and citrus blossom. Very subtle green leafy herb and perhaps a faint mint.Excellent acid profile and weight with length and flow from a fine texture with just enough phenolic grip to act as a cleansing element. Mid-palate weight combines with excel

Weingut Nikolaihof Gutswein Riesling 2017

Riesling | Wachau, Austria

"The 2017 Riesling Gutswein was harvested late with some botrytis and stopped at 12g/L of residual sweetness. Juicy apricot and peach beckon on the nose, promising fruity generosity that the palate promptly delivers - smooth and off-dry. Herbal lift adds dimension, while concentration and ripeness fill the mouth. Fine concentration, acidity and a pithy sense of phenolics and citrus are beautifully set against that slight sweetness, making this an alluring proposition. Off dry."Anne Krebiehl
