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

It fits perfectly with Asian and spicy dishes due to its light sweetness.

Weingut Nikolaihof Neuburger 2022

Neuburger | Wachau, Austria

Neuburger is a traditional but little-known Austrian grape. You can also find it in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and in Romania. Neuburger is a Roter Veltliner x Silvaner cross. This Neuburger has a full and soft taste and has a seductive scent of blooming flower meadows in summer. **REVIEW OF THE 2020** The 2020 Wachau Neuburger is initially much more on the Chardonnay side than it reminds me of the Wachau, particularly if served next to the Gelber Muskateller like in my case.

Weingut Nikolaihof Gelber Muskateller 2022

Muskateller | Wachau, Austria

Note on the 2021 Muskateller: Carrying a little CO2 making for a lively palate when combined with plentiful fine acid. Muscat shining on the nose with all of those floral and fragrant terpenes. They can be overbearing in some wines, not so here, they sit in balance and harmony with citrus ad spice. A salty mineral pleasantly sour hit, on again, a beautifully weighted palate. As the CO2 blows off the expression builds. A Playful, fun and delicious dry Muskateller AKA Muscat à Petits Grains Bl

The 1997 Riesling Vinothek Severin Fass was aged for 25 years in a large, traditional oak cask (filtered, though not on the lees) and opens with an intense yet pure, fresh and spicy, finely oaky bouquet with a deep, mineral tone of crushed stones. On the palate, this is a very intense and complex Riesling slowly building up and revealing great finesse and balanced juiciness. The wine develops a sustainable, aromatic and structured finish with great finesse, lingering salinity and fine tannin gri
