Heiligenstein Grüner Veltliner
Great value match for strong flavours and spices, just enough body to hold up to Szechuan cuisine without being too crisp and zingy

2 people found it helpfulMay 8th, 2015The perfect pairing with the hoisin, ginger, rice & sherry vinegar, sesame oil, scallions, garlic, chili sauce, white pepper, Tabasco, Tarmari soy sauce, fresh cilantro and roasted jalapeño Tomahawk Pork Chop. The wine on it's own 9.2 & a 9.4 with the meal. This is a very similar recipe that Mustard's Grill serves in Napa. My facsimile recreation. Pretty damn tasty.

1 person found it helpfulMar 4th, 2017Grapefruit, limes and limestone on the nose. Pink & regular grapefruit, lime, green apples, beautiful green melon, yellow florals, refined, grippy, amazing minerality, perfect acidity and a beautiful long ripe, round, finish. For those of you that haven't jumped on to try Gruner Veltliner, this is one try as the 13 vintage is sensational. Looks like it's also available through Delectable for a decent price. Great on it's own and pairs well with those hard to pair green vegetables...like asparagus etc..
