A superb introduction to the wines of Bernhard Ott, named after a special barrel (fass) that was hand selected every year by a customer for its quality. Grapes harvested around Spiegel and Rosenberg in lower Wagram produce an intensely aromatic wine revealing aromas of citrus, nectarine and basil. The overall experience is long, saline and moreish. "The 2024 Grüner Veltliner...

"Still unformed nose. Intensely rich palate entry and amazingly persistent. Big enough to serve with a wide range of savoury foods. Great build. Opens out towards the end not unlike a relatively rich white burgundy. But arguably with more energy on the end than many a white burgundy." 17+ Points, Jancis Robinson

"The 2022 Grüner Veltliner Spiegel comes from a cooler, very windy site on calcareous Danubian gravels and loess, made from more than 50-year-old vines at up to 340 meters altitude. It was aged for 20 months on fine lees in a 7,500-liter barrel. The wine opens with an exquisite nose that combines white miso, sun-warmed split pine, lichen and peppery...

This Sauvignon captivates with its deep yellow colour with green hints and aromatic bouquet of ripe gooseberries, papaya and elderberries as well as fine notes of herbs. Juicy acidity, elegant structure and an inviting finish characterize the palate.

This wine has Gooseberries, white and black currants, lime peel and grapefruit on the nose, followed by a Medium-bodied palate with lime, gooseberry and citrus flavours, minerally texture and a long crisp finish. Serve chilled alonside leafy summer salads, fresh oysters and seafood of all types. Pairs well with aromatic herbs like mint and coriander — a great match with...

Straw yellow colour. The nose opens with hints of ripe fruit with yellow flesh, in particular apricot and peach. The fruit is embellished with notes of acacia flowers and Mediterranean scrub and accompanied by briny and balsamic notes. In the mouth the vertical and vibrant freshness and sapidity balance the large and rounded body, with good alcohol content. The long...
