Big and rich for a Grüner but beautifully crafted and still retaining those classic varietal white pepper notes. Great expression of the diversity of style which Grüner Veltliner can achieve.

Rich & intense yet so precise & fine.
Orchard apples, fresh apricots, a salty, slatey whiff, the typical white pepper rather underplayed. Fresh, seemingly light.
On the palate this punches wow. Intense, rich, layered yet so fine and almost weightless. Layers of ripe fruit, with juicy, electric acidity and as if a light tannic frame. Gewürztraminer like in the mouthfeel & complexity, yet with such precision. Wow. There’s depth, there’s tension, there’s great energy & flow.
I’m not a great fan of Grüner Veltliner, and yet this is absolutely stunning. The finish just goes on forever.
I wonder how this will age.
One of Austria‘s greatest in 2020?
