Bright greenish yellow hue with strong tears. On the nose are aromas of fruit zest, dried pineapple, a pinch of white pepper and chamomile tea. The palate delivers notes of fresh pineapple, grapefruit, hints of spice (including cardamom), gingerbread and lemon jam. Plenty of varietal typicity. A full-bodied and grip-ping wine with powerful extract sweetness and vibrant acidity. A delicate blend of sweet-sour-salty-bitter on the finish.
Loimer Description
The Kamptal was like an island of rain in a very dry 2022. After an exceptionally dry winter, the long-anticipated rain finally came in mid-April. In fact, by the time the harvest began, we already had as much rain in six months as there is normally during an entire year. However, the distribution was not always favourable. There were losses due to peronospora, especially with Grüner Veltliner. But as is often the case in such difficult years, the variety fortunately repaid with very good grape quality, thanks to the “natural” thinning out due to powdery mildew. August was dry, which brought excellent ripeness, though rain in September imposed yet another challenge at the beginning of the harvest.
