August 17, 2018 - Very Good Gruner Veltliner, served at about 10c/50f (12.0% abv) with seafood. Pale , straw yellow in the glass, citrus-y on the nose. Light-bodied and crisp & refreshing on the palate giving the sensation of slight effervescence. Nice pleasant finish. Excellent value for casual everyday use.

February 20, 2018 - Wow! I'd put this in a GV tasting anywhere. Clean, varietal and lip smacking. Just goes to show you what good values eastern European wines can be, provided they're made well. Another Trader Joe's great buy.

September 28, 2017 - $5.99 at TJs. Bought it as a cheap white to keep around. Upon first opening, it's lean, tight, tart, with light lemon, stone, green apple, white flowers in a light bodied, crisp wine. Not a ton of true Gruner personality, but drinkable and worth the price at first opening. The real surprise comes a week later - kept chilled and capped, this has actually evolved into a really nice wine. Green bean, lemon zest, white peach, stony minerals, vanilla bean; the finish has lengthened and broadened, and the body is closer to medium-light. My recommendation? One I never thought I'd make for a $5.99 wine - stick it in the cellar for a few years and see what happens.
