95 points James Suckling: "A very distinctive grüner veltliner from the flinty nose through the sleek and sinuous body to the intensely mineral finish. Made from biodynamically-grown grapes. Drink now. Screw cap. (10/1/17)"

93 points David Schildknecht (Vinous): "[$56 list] From stony terraces at the eastern edge of the Kamptal (and as such contiguous with the top Wagram vineyards in which Ott has holdings), this leads with an unexpectedly evolved evocation of moss and wet stone, backed however by intimations of fresh lime and crabapple, snap pea and green bean. The palate is glossy but infectiously juicy and harbors all of the crunch and tang that the nose led one to anticipate. Alkaline, stony, saline and kelp-like notes lend intrigue and oyster liquor-like saliva-inducement to the otherwise refreshing, bracing finish. This is one of those wines that as you work it around in your mouth almost seem to be literally, grittily infused with mineral matter. Drink: 2018-2030. (Oct 2018)"
