BERHARD OTT GRUNER VELTLINER DER OTT - 2006

Austrian white wine with 14% alcohol.

TASTING NOTES:

Bright yellow color with floral and tropical fruit aromas. Flavors of honeydew, watermelon, spiced oak, and honey transition into a beautiful apricot finish. Wonderful structure, acidity, mouthfeel and balance.

SCORE & RECOMMENDATION:

93 PTS
This is a wonderful GV with flavors that pop on the mid-palate. The nose is clean. There is a crispness and focus to the wine that is exceptional. This would be a great introduction wine for people who like sweet white and are looking to experiment with dry white wines. Even though it is dry there is so much tropical and melon zinging around that it would please those with a sweet tooth. A fantastic effort for only $19.
