Gruner from Hungary; go fig. It is easy to down, but it has nuance. In a blind tasting, I’d be tempted to call it a Sauvignon Blanc, given those salad-y baby gem lettuce notes that come on strong, but the white pepper says otherwise. On both the nose and palate, there are major white nectarine vibes. It is friendly but complex and a great representation of this underrepresented variety!

1 person found it helpfulAug 3rd, 2022Medium straw color; yellow apple on the nose; high acidity; tastes like lemons, flint, and a hint of white pepper with a long finish. Not bad, but not as complex as I would like, and not my style of wine.

First Hungarian Gruner.
Lemony zest and pith, white floral, very mild white pepper, nice round fruity body slimmed by acidity. Not overly complicated, but a nice pleasant weekday Gruner. 12% ABV, under $15.

Light straw color. Aromas of stone fruit and lemon custard. Damn good Grüner Veltliner - dry and crisp.
