Tasted at the Bacar dinner, 4/12/04: I am not terribly familiar with Grüner Veltiner, but between this and the Bründlmayer - what an introduction! A tremendously pure nose of stones, chalk, minerals, lemon, and white flowers. Viscous and beautifully balanced, completely dry, showing purity and focus - excellent!

The good ones are already through the roof. The Nigl Privat is $35 in my market. THe Brundelmayer Ried Lamm is $40. Don't even talk about Knoll or Pichler.

2002 Nigl Grüner Veltliner Privat - Austria, Niederösterreich, Kremstal (2/22/2007) WIML90,NOWA,WS92 Tasted February 22, 2007 at an offline. Opened and served immediately in a Spiegelau Authentis Weiss Wein glass. Light yellow color in the glass, clear hue throughout. Nose of whetstone, light citrus notes and a bit of a floral presence. Flavors of minerals, apricots and a little peach. Light to medium acidity, light body. Drink over the short, perhaps medium term. (90 pts.)
