(9/16/2021) "Arriving from the northernmost wine-growing valley in Italy, the 2020 Alto Adige Valle Isarco Gruner Veltliner manages to provide lots of energy and tension, but the mouthfeel is quite streamlined and lean in the end. In this expression of a varietal that was a fixture of the Austro-Hungarian empire, the bouquet reveals a mild breeze of crushed mineral, struck match and tropical fruit. The ensemble is balanced and clean, and this is amplified by the wine's cool and super sharp personality, which seems to call for a spicy Hungarian dish. Some 70,000 bottles were rolled out, and you get terrific value. Drink Date: 2021 - 2025."
