Rotes Tor Smaragd Grüner Veltliner

Fleshy, full flavour, big shoulders
Still pale
2009 is a big vintage
White plum, crunchy apple, nectarine, pineapple and litchee
White pepper, ginger, hay, coriander, almondy and toasty
Long, long and long

Honeyed, lively and a bit of a green tinge character with white pepper, stone fruits, minerals

Phenolic astringency, sea shells, pineapple, cheese rinds, yellow apple.

Amazing what a little time can do.

I missed its prime😞
