Description
“Rich, low-toned and, like its non-vineyard-designated counterpart, dominated by root vegetables accented by pepper and dark leafy greens, this adds a mouthwateringly Traminer-like note of bacon and hints of caramel as well as stimulating tartness and tang of rhubarb. These elements synergistically combine with the stony and peppery inflections of the wine’s impressively long, sappy, deeply savory finish. (“Warm years can occasionally turn Grüner Veltliner Traminer-like,” notes Nigl, adding, “In a blind tasting, I once mistook one of my own for a Traminer.”) – David Schildknecht”

Medium yellow green. Fine yellow apple fruit, delicate hint of quince and honey, candied orange zest, highly attractive bouquet. Juicy, good complexity, extract core sweet, silky texture, fine acidity bow, fine and salty minerality, great length, secure aging potential, a very finesse Veltliner-style.
