Muskateller and gruner veltliner, in a pet nat style, spent six months sitting on lees. Naturally sparkling. Fragrant wine, sweet stone fruits, some lemon curd characters, these things echo between bouquet and palate. Frothy bubbles, nice crunch to acidity, vibrant and clean style. A little quince paste character to finish. Delightful wine. Points: 92/100
Light lemon in colour with some haziness. Superbly aromatic, pretty and delicately floral. Opulent aromas of grapes, grapefruit, roses, turkish delight and apricot swim merrily side by side. Frothy, vibrant fizz takes over the mouth for a moment, before melting away into fine bubbles and leaving a lovely grippy texture. The palate is floral and grapey too, with plush melon and pear. There’s a really ripe sensation and weight of fruit, but it finishes dry. Yum! Delicious! I love the energy and drive here, it’s the opposite of boring. While the majority of Loimer’s vineyards, which are all farmed biodynamically and certified by Respekt Biodyn, lie in the Langenlois area of Kamptal, the Muscat grapes for this fun, refreshing pétillant naturel wine come from Gumpoldskirchen south of Vienna. Points: 93/100
