Aus den Dörfern Grüner Veltliner 2017
Funky, smoky mineral character and lots of concentration. I’d expect nothing less from Rosi. Not a classic Gruner, but it has its place. Highly expressive! — 6 years ago
Boeckel
Zotzenberg Riesling 2018
This is your #riesling if you’re not a fan of the petrol / diesel notes, once this has had a chance to breathe a bit. While I don’t mind those, this is a nice alternative terroir expression - subtle floral and peach notes on nose. @Kurt Schuster is spot on with the crystalline descriptor. The palate is more about the luscious fruit texture backed by sturdy acidity and a touch of RS rather than a lot of complexity. Where else can you get #grandcru #alsaceriesling other than #costco for ~$18? — 9 months ago
Moric
Jagini Zagersdorf Blaufränkisch 2011
2011 is about the most solid Blaufrankish you can drink, excellent offering by Velich and Schuster under Moric. Their motto is “Fruit ferments. People ferment fruit. It’s a challenge.” 2011 is fresh black cherry, a funky acid core, with an after taste that lasts a weekend. Buy it all, it will last a decade and provide solid street cred with your wine snob friends. — 5 years ago

Sankt Laurent 2015
Deeply perfumed fruit with a slightly candied quality on the mouthfeel. Very pretty wine. Needed a couple hours to blow off what I assume is a reductive style of winemaking. — 6 years ago

Weingut Müller-Grossmann, zum goldenen Hirschen, grüner veltliner 2021.
Flinty nose with silex and gun powder touches, some citrusy and flowery touches along with white pear and white pepper notes, and a tiny flowery impression. The palate shows a rather strong acid drive for a grüner Veltliner, which I like very much! Citrusy and peary notes all along, a tiny sweety spot in the midpalate before a long, flowery, citrusy finish that goes on for ever. A clear improvement over yesterday's effort. Pairing made in heaven with aspargus. 😍 — 18 days ago
