Drank over two days. The 86.4 CT score at the time of this note puzzles me. This is a serious, stalwart, gripping, mineral-driven offering of considerable richness and depth and showing excellent acid.

Drank over three days. This Grüner Veltliner has an Austrian Riesling complex. Diesel and citrus notes, backed by intense minerality drape a sturdy frame of considerable grip. Intriguing depth, rippin' acids, bracing mouthfeel, long finish. 90-91.

(Hofer Grüner Veltliner Von den Rieden) ($18.00) There’s no longer the baby-flavor of the barely-born wine – my wife calls this “circus peanuts” – and this still-childlike wine is a perfect by-the-glass candidate; direct and flavory, generously aromatic, full of lentils and maitakes and sorrel and lemon balm. It’s also lower in price than the current wines. Why even hesitate?

Veltliner-Tag (Museumsquartier Wien): Fruchtig in der Nase; am Gaumen sehr angenehm trinkanimierend.
