Bernhard Ott is one of Austria’s most respected names in Grüner Veltliner, known for his precise, biodynamically farmed wines from the Wagram region. His “Am Berg” is the gateway to his lineup—an early-picked, tank-fermented Grüner meant to capture freshness and drinkability while still showcasing Ott’s trademark finesse.

The 2024 vintage continues in that vein: grown on loess soils, fermented in stainless steel, and bottled with minimal intervention. No oak, no tricks—just clear, direct Grüner.

Expect classic notes of lime zest, snap pea, white pepper, and a touch of wet stone. The palate is dry, light-bodied, and zippy, with that hallmark Grüner texture that makes it so good with food. Whether you’re pairing it with sushi, asparagus, or just a sunny day, it hits the mark.

"The 2024 Grüner Veltliner Am Berg is picked across the villages of Engabrunn, Feuersbrunn and Grossriedenthal from contract growers and estate-grown fruit. Grapes are crushed slightly and have some skin contact before pressing, then ferment spontaneously. Crushed yarrow and yeast on the nose make this an unmistakable Grüner. The palate, however, defies the warm year and presents an almost Riesling-like freshness. Vivid freshness, brightness and a gorgeous litheness and precision make this stand out." —Anne Krebiehl, MW

Tasting Profile


Bernhard pioneered organic and biodynamic winemaking in Austria after a trip to the Domaine Romanee Conti in Burgundy, where Aubert de Villaine was making the world’s greatest wines with biodynamics.

Upon his return to Austria he and fellow winemakers Johannes Hirsch and Fred Loimer established respekt-BIODYN, a community oriented group of biodynamic farmers committed to helping each other and the earth through biodynamics.

He even goes as far to make his own compost, a task most growers avoid, but which makes Bernhard giddy as a school boy when showing off his tarp covered piles. Composting may sound like a bunch of shit to some, but his heaping use of the stuff has enabled enough water retention that he doesn’t need to irrigate, even in these record breaking hot recent vintages.

Even though he’s been in charge of his 5th generation estate since 1993 (at the age of 21), he has never stopped experimenting, whether with vessels, stem and skin contact, farming techniques or different grapes. His ultimate goal has always been to prove that his single vineyards: Rosenberg and Spiegel were capable of producing world class, long lived wines.

Grüner Veltliner soars to new heights in his capable hands and even his first three tiers Am Berg, Fass 4 and Der Ott are some of the best values in Austria.
