Stones and apples. Snappy acidity. AMAZING value. A lot of SO2. Green notes.

This Austrian wine’s nose features a strong floral element, quickly joined by a peach note which is not quite ripe. The expected minerals come next, with white pepper, lime and an herbal play following. The palate shows minerals in high definition with a tart fruit flavor in tow, possibly quince or apricot, either one a bit on the green side. I have tasted $15 wines that were better, but also ones which were much worse. A bit more ripeness would benefit this one, but it’s just fine as is for pairing with summer salads.

The nose is very minerally with chalky and flinty notes, apple juice, honey, and lemony notes, too. The palate shows a great acid drive, much more focused than most GV numbers I have had so far. I like its tension a lot! Apple juice and lemony notes all along, a soft, easy-going mouthfeel, a bit of grip in the rear, and a long finish with the same fruity notes and a chalky feel to it. This is not vert complex but super well made. I could picture myself sipping on this and serving it to both wine nerds and casuals alike at the party at home without a problem.
