Tasting notes
Deep straw. Not much nose and a bit loose. OK but lacks a bit of focus – though better than some of its 2017 peers! (JR)

The Lamm lies on the southeast part of the Heiligenstein, where the mountain forms into soft hills. The soil consists of loess and loam. Greenish straw. There’s an impressive coolness about this. But the acid seems relatively low. Easy and charming without being compelling. Nicely put together without exaggeration. (JR)
Moosbrugger's intensely yellow colored 2017 Kammern Ried Lamm "1ÖTW" is very intense, precise and deep on the nose, where ripe and well-concentrated fruit intertwines with crystalline stony notes and a touch of oak. Mouth-fillingly juicy but fine and elegant on the pure and mineral palate, this is a lush and intensely fruity but also piquant Lamm with great intensity and a lingering mineral finish. Fine tannins add even more structure and give this deep and complex wine impressive aging potential. Moosbrugger's Riede Lamm is one of the finest Grüner Veltliners that have been produced in Austria in 2017.
