Wine Advocate (100)Fermented and aged in 500-liter tonneaux, the 2018 Grüner Veltliner Unendlich is intense in its radiant lemon yellow color. Aged on the full lees for a year and assembled about four weeks prior to bottling, the 2018 opens with a very intense, complex and finely oaky bouquet of concentrated pineapples, ripe stone fruits and some dashes of fresh lemon juice. Full-bodied, rich and round on the palate, with remarkably fine acidity and precision, this is a very intense, powerful and creamy-textured Unendlich with tropical and hedonistic fruit aromas but this precise and sharp Kellerberg acidity that cuts through like a laser sword. The 2018 Unendlich is incredibly long but keeps the focus and precision and finishes not only fresh but also finessed. Incredible. The 500-liter Meursault barrels were just perfect for this wine and deliver not only an aromatic spiciness and warm complexity but also very fine tannins and this transparency that stainless steel would never would have caused. This is amazing wine. Wine lovers of the world, unite and take over! The nose is very intense and stimulating, but there is nothing vulgar. The finish is enormously intense, rich and sweet but with sharp crystalline acidity that brings the wine back home to the Wachau after excursions into the Rhône and Meursault. 15.5% alcohol. Tasted at the domain in June 2021. |

James Suckling (99)This dry riesling has gigantic concentration, but also gigantic elegance and finesse. Still a little shy on the nose, but this has been made to age for decades. Delicate notes of white peach, pink grapefruit and mountain herbs in the nose, then on the palate also hints of licorice and white chocolate. However, the most extraordinary thing about the wine is the mind-blowing stony intensity at the extremely focused and salty finish. Doesn’t want to stop. Enormous aging potential. From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drink or hold. |

Wine Advocate (93-94)Tasted as a sample that was assembled the same day I tasted it in November 2018 (and a day before the real assemblage), the 2017 Pinot Noir is very intense and fruity on the nose, still with yeasty notes. The palate is concentrated and lush, very fine and elegant, with great finesse and intensity. This is generous but fresh and structured, with crystalline acidity and minerality. Very promising. |

Wine Advocate (96)The 2021 Pinot Noir is as spicy, precise and fresh on the intense and aromatic nose as if it had been fermented with whole clusters. In fact, the grapes were completely destemmed, like all Gantenbein Pinots so far. This is a full-bodied, refined and textural Pinot with remarkably delicate acidity, fine tannins and stimulating salinity on the finish, which is very long, intense and complex. Tasted at the domaine in March 2024. |
