Weinkeller Walter Glatzer   Donauland / Carnuntrum, Austria  
 
 
 
  Walter Glatzer is a miracle. An amazingly nice guy, making sensational wines and offering them at way down-to-earth prices; this isn’t, you know, an everyday occurrence! He’s also obsessively motivated to keep improving the wines, which he seems to do annually.  Walter Glatzer’s doing a smart thing: holding stocks back so as to have 18 months worth of wine in the cellar, which in most cases means two vintages. This is especially good for the reds, which always bulk up with a year in bottle — even the “wee” ones.

Along with Berger these are the best values in this offering. And with steadily increasing quality, especially among the reds. Tight, reductively brilliant whites that should be poured by the glass at every restaurant in the universe!
