Morillon vom Opok
Biodynamic Chardonnay from Steiermark.
Cloudy, smokey, yeasty, sappy, fresh!
Bruised apples, ripe lemons, underripe pineapple, green mango. Plus some hay, flinty, smokey aromas. Juicy, fresh, enticing.
On the palate with vibrant acidity, with great freshness & depth. Rough around the edges, with a touch of cidery notes, a bit of VA. There’s a creamy touch to the mouthfeel. And a mineral hint. This is ultra drinkable and so delicious. Love it! — 2 years ago
Smells like “bubble gum” doesn’t taste that way but think this bottle is advanced due to storage because of an oxy note on palate. Nice acidity texture and length as you’d expect — 3 years ago

Maison Sota — 2 years ago
Bright yellow gold. Inviting nose of seared pineapple and yellow flowers. Firm acidity leads the medium palate of orange rind, yellow flowers, white pepper, and a hint of anise on the short-ish, but not unusual, finish. Excellent GV with more elegant layers of flavors than your typical Gruner. Want a special white for that Central European fare? This should be near the top of your list. Pork tenderloin with apples and asparagus were my go to. Drink now through 2024. — 3 years ago
Jura style wine from Austria, lovely acid — 7 months ago
I think this is basically a U.S. Importer/negociant label. The wine is inexpensive and good. Loads of bright, appley, peachy fruit in the nose, along with a whiff of deep-toned slatey minerals. Round and full-flavored, but in a light carriage, it’s only slightly sweet and has some nice, integrated acidity. — 2 years ago
Light, bright, and refreshing. Great value — 3 years ago
