Ried Mühlberg – Grüner Veltliner – 2023
Austria 🇦🇹

Overview
A classic yet expressive Grüner Veltliner from the Mühlberg vineyard (“Ried”), showcasing the varietal’s signature freshness, minerality, and versatility. Crafted in a clean, vibrant style that balances fruit and structure beautifully.

Aromas & Flavors
Bright and layered with tropical fruit notes, green apple, citrus, and a subtle white pepper spice. Hints of stone fruit and a mineral edge add depth and intrigue.

Mouthfeel
Crisp and refreshing with lively acidity. Medium-light body with a clean, mineral-driven finish that keeps the palate energized and wanting another sip.

Food Pairings
Perfect with schnitzel, seafood, sushi, salads, roasted vegetables, or lightly spiced Asian dishes. Also shines as a standalone sipper.

Verdict
A Grüner that never disappoints, fresh, expressive, and beautifully balanced. Equally enjoyable for casual sipping or a more attentive, sophisticated palate.

Did You Know?
Grüner Veltliner is Austria’s flagship grape and is famous for its natural affinity with food, especially dishes that are notoriously hard to pair, like asparagus or artichokes.

🍷 Personal Pick
One of those go-to whites that quietly overdelivers, easygoing on the surface, but with enough layers to keep things interesting. — 22 days ago

last bottle and it was the best — ever!

opened for an old friend and after battling a broken cork and decanting, it ended up absolutely pristine, darn near flawless. A testament to Fred Scherrer — 8 months ago

Delicious fruity zin that’s holding up beautifully. A bit of oxidation although no pronounced off aroma or palette. Remarkable how this rich ripe wine has consistently delivered fruit and supple tannins after 10+ years. Tribute to Mr. Scherrer. — 3 years ago

Pale straw without a hint of brick. Carmelized pear and vanilla on the nose, no alcohol despite a whopping 14.5 ABV. Delicious vanilla apple and pear with a bit of butterscotch on the palate. Holding quite well despite 6 or 7 years in the bottle. Drink now or hold a few more years. — 3 months ago

Last bottle — opened for an old friend and like the PN alongside, this was a stunner, nearly flawless. Intact cork, bunch of sediment, and after only half hour in the decanter it was game time. Had PN and this alongside gorgeous ribeye — 8 months ago
