Bought this at Leopold in Lisbon after trying it on the tasting menu. Very funky bio dynamic that I love. Our waitress said it’s not popular in Portugal but Americans and canadiens love it. — 6 years ago
A fabulous find!! Grasevina is a dry, fresh, aromatic white wine with apple-like notes. It’s typically considered to be a neutral and easy-drinking wine. The everyday wine of Central Europe, Grasevina is also known as Welschriesling. Recognizable features of the grape are its acid and slight almond-like bitterness. Belje began in 1697 when Roman Emperor Leopold gifted the estate to Prince Eugene of Savoy. The wine is straw yellow with hints of light green. The wine itself is beautifully fruity and flowery, fresh and crisp acidity that resembles citrus with the slightest hint of sweetness. This wine is well balanced, finishes with a beautiful orange peel note and a nice bite. An exceptional food-friendly wine that is unfairly overlooked and underappreciated.

Raisins, bananas, and bread pudding on the nose, with notes of candied yams and some nice spicy heat. — 3 years ago
Nose is a bit quiet. Some wet stones but surprisingly quiet. Maybe too cold? Palate is electric. Wow. Just a big zing of fresh mouthwatering minerals. Really long. Really closed. Unusual for it to be this closed but it’s all there. Needs to come together! Some sugar snap peas and florals with coaxing. Really long and mouthcoating. So pure and energetic. Wow. Really great. I’ll be back.
Really coming around now. Expansive and herbal aromas. Floral and so delicate. Ripe, juicy, long. Salty. Great structure. — 4 years ago

Just sampling Gruners and fell in love with this one. Nice dryness and minerality with a touch of fruits. Wish this wasn’t out of stock at TJs as it would make a great wine for Thanksgiving. — 4 days ago
