There is an international consensus that this is the absolute model vineyard. This vertiginous, barren and purist primitive-rock terrace, which is south-easterly exposed and located at the exit of a side valley, creates a very special microclimate. The Kellerberg vineyard is already pampered by the sun early in the morning. ... more

This is one of the steepest and most austere primitive-rock sites encountered in Loiben. The Loibner Berg, Wachau’s largest coherent single vineyard, is fully exposed to the south and accordingly warm. The wines derived from this site are shaped by the unique composition of this first-class soil, which imparts longevity ... more

Nigl says there was some desiccation but no problematic botrytis in the grapes for his 2006 Gruner Veltliner Privat, even though they were picked November 15, several days after the region’s first significant (and unusually early) snowfall.

The 2006 Gruner Veltliner Alte Reben was not harvested until November and has 15% alcohol. Roasted lentil, green bean, and the heady sweetness of lilac in the nose are joined by low-toned mocha-coffee, caramelized parsnip, and malt on a sumptuous, full, glossy, glycerin-rich palate. For now, I notice only faint ... more
