Grüner Veltliner
About this wine
Käferberg lies across the Kamp river valley from the Heiligenstein, where primary rock meets marine sediment deposits — a combination that gives this Grüner Veltliner an extra layer of richness compared to Bründlmayer's other Erste Lage sites. The wine opens with a nuanced bouquet of pome fruit, quince, and citrus peel, layered with anise and ginger spice notes, and moss and dried pear-skin nuances in riper vintages. On the palate it is dry, finely textured, and medium-to-full-bodied, balancing freshness with density and precision.
A richer, spicier take on Grüner Veltliner — a great next step for those who already enjoy the estate's entry-level bottling.
Sommelier's Note
"Käferberg is the most underrated of Bründlmayer's Erste Lage sites — spicier and richer than Lamm, and just as capable of aging gracefully."
Food Pairings
Excellent with roast pork, mushroom dishes, and aged Gouda; the spice notes also complement yakitori with tare sauce or nikujaga.
When to drink it
Autumn dinners, mushroom or pork-centered menus, and gatherings with wine-curious friends.

Bründlmayer Alte Reben Grüner Veltliner
WhiteGrüner Veltliner
Bründlmayer's Alte Reben (Old Vines) Grüner Veltliner is a profound expression of the Kamptal region's terroir. Sourced from vines aged 40 to 60 years in top parcels including Heiligenstein and Lamm, this wine offers remarkable concentration, depth, and structural complexity. On the nose, it reveals layers of yellow stone fruits, white pepper, and subtle tobacco notes. The palate is characterized by a vibrant acidity, a creamy texture, and a long, mineral-driven finish. It is a sophisticated wine that balances power with elegance, showcasing the true potential of Grüner Veltliner cultivated in prime, ancient vineyard sites.

Grüner Veltliner Ried Lamm 1ÖTW
WhiteGrüner Veltliner
Ried Lamm sits on the south-eastern slope toe of the Heiligenstein hill in Kammern — one of the warmest sites in Kamptal, with soils of chalky clay, loess, and siltstone. Bründlmayer ferments the wine in 300-liter Austrian oak and small new acacia barrels, then ages it in larger oak and acacia casks. The result abandons the lightness typical of Grüner Veltliner in favor of a monumental style: deep, intense, and layered, with lemony, herbal, stony, and saline notes on the nose, pristine acidity, and a smooth, fluid, richly textured palate. Widely regarded as one of Austria's greatest white wines.

Riesling Kamptal Terrassen
WhiteRiesling
Sourced from terraced vineyards across the Kamptal, this entry-level Riesling offers a compellingly pure introduction to Bründlmayer's house style at an accessible price. The bouquet shows white and yellow flowers (elderflower, acacia), green lemon peel, and hints of anise and fennel spice; the palate is dry, zesty, and vibrant, led by racy lemon-lime acidity over a bed of crushed stone. Widely praised for its outstanding quality-to-price ratio.

Riesling Ried Heiligenstein Erste Lage
WhiteRiesling
Sourced from the Bründlmayer family's core holdings in the Zöbinger Heiligenstein — a Perm-era desert sandstone outcrop containing volcanic inclusions and fossilized primeval plant material — this Erste Lage Riesling is one of Kamptal's most site-transparent wines. Vines here are trained partly on the estate's signature Lyra system and partly on traditional Guyot, with berries hanging well clear of the soil to protect against rot. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, followed by extended lees contact in large old oak casks. The result is racy, mineral-driven Riesling with notes of Amalfi lemon, pink grapefruit, and wet stone, framed by bright, precise acidity and a long, saline finish.
