  Well did buy one more bottle, and did like this better than last. Touch off dry perhaps but all balanced and like the nose and palate with at least 3 levels of fruit...white stone fruit/green apple/some floral quality with decent acidity and med/longer finish. Tasty stuff must say. Good QPR. Did not get same experience as first note listed. Maybe 1-2 yrs in bottle has mellowed this a little. I would give this a buy for people wanting to try a GV...i think overall underrated varietal.

  New vintage at Wine House @ 18$. I have liked this popular producer (in my province) of GV. The '07 was better. I did like the Singing version a little more also it seems.
  
  I would agree with the first tasting note written here. Decent enough, tasty if not simple and one noted. I get mostly honey and light apple. Not off dry for me, just got balance of acid/sugar. Hate to say, would not buy more. Got some Hopler GV from Opimian which i'm digging.

  Bottled under screw cap, consumed over two days. The wine offered a very limited nose, with buttermilk and a touch of white pepper. The wine was not very expressive on the palate either, showing grapes and hints of stone fruits. The defining factor was the good acidity carrying through the palate. The wine was rather basic and even more disappointing than the “Laurenz V. Singing Grüner Veltliner” we had two nights ago. We even did not finish the bottle in two days, which is rare. I won’t buy again.
