October 4, 2023 - Visits in the Wachau and Kamptal; 10/4/2023-10/5/2023 (In and around the Wachau and Kamptal, Lower Austria): This shows off more depth with a succulent side to it along with nectarines, apple crisp, pears, fresh herbs, yellow flowers, a Touch of biscuits, and some racy mineral notes. The Medium/full bodied feel has a plushness to it along with tart, medium+ acidity. This is a clear step up from the rotes tor and a Gruner that could well use a few years to fully settle in.

September 14, 2023 - Austrian Estate Visits; 9/13/2023-9/15/2023 (In and around the Wachau valley): Herb and citrus. Wonderful silky texture-medium weight and glycerine. Again, citrus and a touch of bitters. Average acidity but excellent soil finish. Probably for the nearer term.
