My kind of Gruner! Massive character with loads of minerals that simply excite the palate. A gorgeous, expansive wine. I see the appeal here and could drink this as often as access would allow...which, sadly, won’t allow for a lot.

Had it May 2009.
Brilliant straw yellow colour.
Lemon and pear, elegant green part, wet rocks, super enjoyable.
Great wine that will hold for the long term, but drinking it now it's not a crime

99 Prager Achleiten...Stunning. Dried Apricot, peach, horseradish, honey and straw. A reminder to age great Grüner.

Great wine... But I prefer the Gobelsberg Tradition.
