Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Bründlmayer's 2021 Riesling Ried Heiligenstein 1ÖTW is the second edition that contains the pickings from the former Heiligenstein Lyra that was bottled alone for many years until the 2019 vintage. So, there are just two selections remaining from the Kamptal's oldest and finest Riesling grand cru, where Bründlmayer holds 69 of the 200 total terraces in the central part of the site. Cultivated on perm sandstone soils, the 2021 Heiligenstein opens with a clear and intense nose full of ripe and elegant Riesling aromas intertwined with weathered stone and slightly flinty and saline aromas. Full-bodied, intense and powerful on the palate, this is a rich yet elegant and persistent Heiligenstein that was entirely vinified in stainless steel. The finish is long, tight and complex, very saline and indicates great aging potential. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in October 2022.

Description
The Bründlmayer family owns 12 hectares right in the middle of the Zöbinger Heiligenstein. This is not only the oldest, but probably also the most interesting plot of land on their estate. The soil consists of Perm desert sandstone, which is approximately 270 million years old. The grape variety used is Riesling, with a harvest yield of 3,500 kg per hectare. The vines are trained in Guyot and the grapes are harvested at the end of October.
Winemaking
The must ferments in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 15-20° Celsius. After fermentation, part of the wine is transferred to oak vats to mature for a short period on its fine lees.
Taste
Bründlmayer Ried Heiligenstein Riesling is a jewel of the Kamptal DAC, and with Erste Lage ÖTW classification. This wine presents a bright, multi-layered and fresh bouquet, highlighting notes of vineyard peaches, white flowers and lemon zest, combined with a hint of fresh spices. On the palate, it is dry and fresh, crystal clear and graceful, with hints of lemon zest and white currant, accompanied by a touch of youthful yeastiness. It is dense and energetic at first, but then unfolds with finesse, showing a long mineral and spicy finish, being an excellent representative of this great vintage of Heiligenstein.
