Kamptal Grüner Veltliner, 2017

12%

750 ml

Varietal: Grüner Veltliner

Tasting Notes:

Transparent yellow-green hue. In the nose are animating scents of meadow herbs paired with hints of peppery spice together and a whiff of yellow apple. The palate reveals a wine nicely balanced with round acidity. A beautiful herbal spice completes the flavour palette. With its juiciness and creaminess, it’s ideal as a starter companion or an appetizing aperitif. Always a pleasure! 

“Yeasty creaminess plays on the nose of this wine while leafy, herbal overtones create allure. The palate wraps this all into a concentrated, fresh, taut bundle of savoriness and lemon freshness. It has verve, drive and a wonderfully yeasty, peppery finish.”– Anne Krebiehl MW, Wine Enthusiast

“More buttery and creamy than their Lois, with greater drinkability as a result. Lovely herby notes alongside green apple fruit and refreshing finish.” – Richard Hemming MW, Jancis Robinson
