2012 vintage. Amazing complexity. Underripe peach, lemon pith, candied apricot, white pepper, white lilies limestone, river rock, Thai basil. High acid, med + alc. weighty and nervy at the same time.

A great introduction to Smaragd #grunerveltliner from the Wachau. The density and body of the top wines with energy and freshness of a younger wine. The nose and palate reveal the hallmark (for GV) cracked white peppercorn, basil, fragrant white flowers, with a persistent layer of pear and lime citrus fruit. A touch of ripeness falls in line with the house style. Excellent value and a great example of Smaragd. If you think Gruner is a basic Sauvignon Blanc like wine in 1L bottles try this and don't look back!

2012 FX Pichler 'Urgestein Terrassen' Smaradg #Grüner #Wachau #Austrianwine. Intense nose of green grass, honeydew and white pepper with yellow apple and Asian pear on a long, smooth mineral finish. Texture is thick for Grüner. This is a serious #wine. #sommelier #sommlife #wineporrn #winepimping
