'01 Salomon Undhof Hocterrassen Grȕner Veltliner, Kremstal, alc 11.5%...with artichoke chicken and roasted red peppers over pasta....great viscosity and mouthfeel...good fruit intensity...drinking quite well...always a great wine for the money

Thanks; I've been wondering about Solomon's wines recently. Need to buy and try.

Sadly they left the Theise portfolio for (what they thought were) greener pastures. Try finding the wines (post 2007 vintage) now!

David,
Perhaps, such pastures are not on U.S. soil; yes?
Best, Jim

Australia actually. we just opened a few solomon wines last week: 07 Salomon fish bottle (no eel) was nice, very citrusy, dry and forward. Easy drinking but a little too frooty for me.

04 Kogl was really classic and delicious. ripe and dense but quite dry. id say its right about where it needs to be.

No - regional distributors in the USA.
