The 2006 Gruner Veltliner Federspiel Im Weingebirge – like this year’s Hefeabzug – offers a ripe and complex set of flavors with the lightness and sheer refreshment that are part and parcel of Federspiel. Green bean, nutmeg, sage, clover, and salad greens on the nose lead to a juicy, refined palate with clarity and cut. Subtle suggestions of walnut oil, along with nutmeg, coffee, and the faint bitterness of greens and wet stone inform the long and lip-smacking finish. _x000D_

The 2006 collection here is a triumph, confirming that young Nikolaus Saahs is capable of preserving if not enhancing the high standards and distinctive style of his family’s wines. Even the most understated bottlings – perhaps those in particular – make a completely convincing statement. (For a more “complete Nikolaihof experience,” I have listed and reviewed the wines in the order in which they were presented to me when I first tasted them in June.)_x000D_
