"The sense of stuffing conveyed in the corresponding Frauenweingarten bottling is enhanced in Pichler and Krutzler’s 2012 Gruner Veltliner Klostersatz – which was raised in cask with longer lees-contact – by silken texture and deceased yeast nuances. Stony, cyanic, and mouthwateringly saline notes invigoratingly and intriguingly inflect a matrix of peach, grapefruit and green bean, leading to an exuberant and refreshing finish. Here yet one more demonstration – of which F. X. Pichler’s Riesling from the adjacent Oberhauser offers the consistently most striking – that a nearly-flat, gravelly site can by dint of superior drainage or other factors play in the same Wachau league as wines from steep Urgestein sites."
