A stunner from Bert, this wine has such gorgeous concentration, pure lime and just a hint of mango, there are complex herbal notes and an underlying green spice. Bold and concentrated on the palate with sleek acid and such beautiful ripe citrus length, all rounded off with a mineral drive. Drinking range: 2020 - 2025 L&S (Apr 2020)

Splash out on one of the best white wines I’ve tasted in the last few months: Salomon Undhof Ried Kögl 2018 (13%) £19.95 from Lea & Sandeman. It’s a flashing blade of mineral purity – imagine frosted lime juice with a twist of lychee. Olly Smith, The Mail on Sunday (Apr 2020)
This beautiful riesling shows a delicate balance between mineral tension and flowery aromatics. Bright lemons, limes, cardamom, green apples and stoney terraces come into view. Very edgy and pure on the palate, the acidity laying down crystal-clear boundaries between the bright citrus fruit and light softness to the texture. Drink or hold. Drinking range: 2019 - Rating: 94 James Suckling, www.jamessuckling.com (Dec 2019)
Salomon Undhof
Founded in 1792 SALOMON UNDHOF is a wine estate with a long tradition. The Salomon family from the Wachau produces white wines from the best terraced "Urgestein" sites along the Danube River in Stein and Krems. Today Bert and Gertrud Salomon run the winery. The famous Riesling of the estate thrives on the topsites of Kögl and Pfaffenberg. The Grüner Veltliner Von Stein comes from the steep terrassed hills behind the old town of Stein. The best "loess" soils provide the Lindberg and Wachtberg Grüner Veltliner. All the grapes are harvested traditionally by hand only. Their great vineyard locations and meticulous work in the vineyards are prerequisites for their elegant wines. Wines with finesse and perfect mineral balance reflect the very special micro climate of this lovely river valley. The Estate’s Grüner Veltliner and Riesling distinguish themselves through elegance and consistency.
