First Wednesday Wine Club (Napoli in Bocca, Haberfield): "Served Blind. Green citrus; lemon; lime, slight green apple. Medium plus intensity acidity, slight sulphur, slight alcohol warmth, muted fruit. After a little stumbling the fruit profile and the alcohol warmth led me to Austria and Gruner Veltliner of about 5 years old."

Pale yellow with clear ring, surprising considering the age of the wine. Excellent clarity and overall condition. Low intensity nose with minerality and a touch of petrol and honeydew melon. On the palate, again quite fresh, with vibrant acidity. Dry lemon tempered with a floral quality that adds interest if not legit complexity. There is some weight to the palate and the finish builds pleasantly with this Gruner... I am impressed with how well the wine presents!

Easy drinker. Some complexity. Hits on all cylinders with spicy Asian. 85

Delightful aroma. Wonderful with grilled peaches and chicken.

Sleek and perhaps a tad lean, this shows tart grapefruit and a dusting of pepper. High acidity. Attractive minerality. Nice but not complex or deep.
