My first GV. Restrained on the nose. Different story on the palate - mineral with vibrant acidity and a hint of peppery spiciness on the medium+ finish. Not a life changer, but suits my palate and will be definitely coming back for more..

My first Gruner Veltliner. I might say the nose wasnt much but it did sing on the palate, nicely balanced and easy on the taste buds. I found it to be vibrant with floral floral aromas and flavors of pear and citrus. I did taste a bit of minerals, but I feel this struck a good balance with the citrus making the acidity refreshing almost palate cleansing.

4th Saturday Group brown bagger (Rick's & Cris'): Wasn't sure what to make of this. Aromas of citrus, lemongrass and honeysuckle. Pineapple, tropical fruit and peach notes on the palate, with nice underlying acidity. I liked it quite a bit, but it went downhill quickly, developng an odd cheesy aroma that was a real turnoff. Had some spritz to it as well. None of us guessed Gruner.

Popped and poured, and this Singing was singing with Peruvian ceviche and seafood.
