92 Stephan Reinhardt - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Aldo Sohm's and Gerhard Kracher's 2024 Grüner Veltliner Lion is from the Pulkautal in the Weinviertel region north of Vienna, almost at the border to the Czech Republic. The wine offers an elegant and rather coolish, spicy nose with savory seed fruit and earthy or even stony aromas and has a certain, very attractive reduction. Elegant and fresh on the palate, this is a medium-bodied, linear, savory and grippy Veltliner with a long and saline finish. 12.5% stated alcohol. Screw-cap closure. Tasted at Weinlaubenhof Kracher in Illmitz, Burgenland, in June 2025.
