The 2022 Weingut Bernhard Ott Grüner Veltliner Fass 4 is a benchmark Austrian white from Wagram, crafted from 100% Grüner Veltliner and sourced from higher-elevation loess soils. It reflects a classic, terroir-driven style, combining depth, spice and freshness with added texture from lees ageing and partial oak. The nose is aromatic and refined, showing citrus, green apple and pear, layered with white pepper, herbs and a subtle mineral edge.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a smooth, rounded texture balanced by crisp acidity and fine tension. Flavours of orchard fruit, citrus and gentle spice lead to a fresh, lively and slightly saline finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a go-to premium Grüner Veltliner—perfect for customers looking for a step up in texture and complexity from entry-level styles. It’s fresh yet structured, making it very food-friendly. Drink now or over the next 5–8 years. Ideal with seafood, pork, Asian dishes or vegetable-based cuisine.
