By Terry Theise
(Hirsch Grüner Veltliner "veltliner #1") ($20.00) CORE-LIST WINE. Valerie Masten asked what went into this wine. Johannes is using less and less purchased fruit, and wants eventually to use none at all. Meanwhile, “Not even God knows what’s in there,” he observed. I coulda swore I tasted some Hunter Valley Semillon or maybe some South Downs Reichensteiner from the U.K. In fact this is a markedly tasty and successful 2011; surprisingly dark aromas lead into a fresh silvery palate mingling flowering fields and nettle; it’s spicy yet calm and poised, even lapidary. And blissfully light (11.5%!).

Twisted and poured. Don't drink a lot of Gruber but liked this. Lots of ocean spray, light nuts, white flowers. Darn near spritzy. Would buy again.

Delicious. Should be a few $ less, but this is a crowd pleaser if there ever was one. If someone's never had a grüner veltliner before, this is a great starter. Mmm.
