MEINHARD FORSTREITER TABOR GRUNER VELTLINER - 2006

Dry white Gruner from Austria with 14% alcohol.

TASTING NOTES:

Light straw color with aromas and flavors of vibrant citrus, apple, pear, burnt oak with smoke underneath, tropical fruits and honey on the finish. Great sharp acidity, rich and concentrated.

SCORE & RECOMMENDATION:

90 PTS
Retails for around $30 making this an expensive white wine. Very solid and well-made but lacked a little excitement for price. Tastes like a great dish that is missing a key seasoning. Cost aside, this is a very enjoyable wine.
