Anyone recommend an organic wool mattress topper?

I guess it doesn't have to be organic. The ones I see are and with an organic cotton cover. I think that's the model I'd like, a quilted plush cover with straps. This is to go over a Tempur Pedic mattress which is hot to sleep on. I need the wicking action of the wool. I don't think any synthetics can dot the job, but I'm all ears.

At around 400 bucks for a queen, I do believe I need to choose carefully. No more Costco toppers. They're foam anyway. Bad mistake and $200 wasted.

BTW, the mattress store I bought the TP memory foam thing from has Ogallala toppers. Like 700 bones. I guess they are the Porsche of the toppers but I have seen some others at Rolls Royce prices.

I'm not the Princess and the Pea.

Thanks, Craigster, but I did say in the OP that I wanted a quilted, covered topper. I think these are more flexible to take advantage of the Tempur Pedic. At least in my experience, lambs wool on a single backing is stiffer, like a car seat sheepskin.
