2022 Hiedler Gruner Veltliner Langenloiser Tonmineral

91 Points Falstaff Magazine
In stock
A superb Gruner from the town of Langenlois in the centre of the Kamptal appellation. Every wine village is unique in terms of location, geology and wine culture and the Ortswein (Village Wine) tradition is centuries old. This is one of Hiedler's great value labels, and offers the "saline, savory, sweet character worthy of a great Chablis." A full-bodied Veltliner with substance, structure and an umami minerality that is simply delicious. Serious value.
$36.99 in mixed 6+ or $41.99 per bottle

Gruner Veltliner

Its Origins

From 35 hectares of Erste Lage (Premier Cru) holdings in the Kamptal, the Hiedler family has been producing wine in Langelois since the mid-18th century. Starting in 1980, Ludwig and María Angeles Hiedler have led operations, while their son Ludwig Jr. finishes his winemaking studies and practicum at Von Volxem. Hiedler’s holdings are in the best vineyards in the Kamptal, with Riesling parcels in the Heiligenstein and Gaisberg, and Grüner Veltliner in the deep loess vineyards that rest at the base of those mountains: Lamm, Grub, and Renner. Hiedler’s other sites in the area include a ‘Grand Cru’ monopole, Thal, Spiegel, Steinhaus, and Loiserberg. In addition to Grüner Veltliner and Riesling, the Hiedlers work with Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc), the first plantings of which were planted by Ludwig’s father in the Schenkenbickl, a ‘Grand Cru’ plot just below the Käferberg. All organic/natural practices. Notably, malolactic fermentation is never blocked but allowed to occur naturally, allowing Hiedler a quite broad and unique dimension of texture and weight; a distinctive approach to both Grüner Veltliner and Riesling from this region.

What The Critics Say

91/100 Falstaff, Peter Moser

"Pale golden yellow, with silver hues. Subtle notes of savoury herbs and apricots, some nutty aromas underneath nuances of pome fruit. Juicy, medium bodied, notes of apple, a fine acidity, animated, versatile."
