Zimmermann 2006 Rosshimmel Riesling (Kremstal)
- Cellar Selection
- $20
Alois Zimmermann’s top Rieslings come from the Rosshimmel vineyard. A concentrated wine, still with youthful structure and closed white fruits. The acidity and intensity of flavor all point to long-term potential—give it 5 years at least.

Zimmermann 2007 Rosshimmel Riesling (Kremstal)
- $26
Very dry, crisp, taut and mineral, a tense wine with a streak of green berries and almost achingly fresh acidity. This is certainly a food style of Riesling, too dry for aperitif. Screwcap.

Zimmermann 2006 Kapuzinerberg Riesling (Kremstal)
- $18
Classic Riesling, all fresh currants and stone fruits with a touch of spice, finishing full and rich. This wine comes from the Kapuzinerberg vineyard on the southern slopes of the Krems hills. Screwcap.

Zimmermann 2007 Gernlüsen Grüner Veltliner (Kremstal)
- $18
One of a series of single vineyard wines from Alois Zimmermann, this dense Grüner Veltliner is packed with ripe green plums, minerality and a rich structure. It has great freshness, but at the same time good concentration. Screwcap.

Zimmermann 2006 Auslese Grüner Veltliner (Kremstal)
- $21
Although there is some sweetness here, this wine is more about power and richness. The spices and the exotic lychee flavor dominate a super-ripe wine, dense and concentrated. Drink as a first-course wine, maybe with a pâté.

Zimmermann 2007 Kremser Gelbling Grüner Veltliner (Kremstal)
- $24
Fresh, cut grass aromas precede green plum flavors under a layer of creaminess. This is verging on rich, a satisfying mouthful of green fruits and smooth acidity.
— R.V.

Zimmermann 2006 Kremser Kraxn Riesling (Kremstal)
- $20
The Kraxn (pronounced “KRAX-en”) is well-placed for Riesling, with its southern exposure close to the Danube river. The richness of the fruit shows through in this soft, open, opulent wine, with its pepper and white fruit flavors.
— R.V.

Zimmermann 2007 Sandgrube Grüner Veltliner (Kremstal)
- Online Exclusive
- $16
A floral, aromatic wine, with flavors of crisp lemon and orange peel, green apple skins and grapefruit. There is just a hint of pepper in the aftertaste. Screwcap.
