"Georg Leindl founded this estate in 2013, after several years of renting space at Nigl to make wines. He owns about 12 acres, including five in Seeberg, a vineyard of sand, clay and slate in Langenlois. Those vines channeled the warmth of 2013 into a veltliner that’s juicy with ripe orange, pear and tropical fruit flavors. It’s a little peppery, too, balanced for bold dishes."

"Georg Leindl founded this estate in 2013, after several years of renting space at Nigl to make wines.

"Rich, low-toned and, like its non-vineyard-designated counterpart, dominated by root vegetables accented by pepper and dark leafy greens, this adds a mouthwateringly Traminer-like note of bacon and hints of caramel as well as stimulating tartness and tang of rhubarb. These elements synergistically combine with the stony and peppery inflections of the wine’s impressively long, sappy, deeply savory finish. (“Warm years can occasionally turn Grüner Veltliner Traminer-like,” notes Nigl, adding, “In a blind tasting, I once mistook one of my own for a Traminer.”) - David Schildknecht"
"Ripe stone fruit notes, especially aromatic Mirabelle plum, rise from the glass, alongside more evolved chamomile tisane scents. With its slight bottle age, this shows where evolution can lead Grüner Veltliner. The palate retains its zesty, salty savoriness yet is wonderfully concentrated. Juicy Mirabelle reappears on the long, savory finish."
"Bright yellow-green, silver reflections. Fresh herbs, a touch of orange zest, white apple and mineral nuances. Straight, dense, fine white tropical fruit, nuances of apple, finesse and acidity, hints of honeydew melon, pineapple on the finish, lemony touch, good aging potential."
"A rather shy nose reveals nothing but slight notes of citrus. The palate then fills out with subtle but convincing notes of fresh sage, lemon pith, celery salt and yeast. Lemon highlights keep this on the ultrafresh side, but the savory yeastiness provides a lovely balance. - ANNE KREBIEHL MW"
