Grüner Veltliner 2020

5 Stars Michael Cooper : Now a 'Classic'. The youthful, bright, light lemon/green 2020 vintage (5*) is also impressive. A distinctive wine, it is mouth-filling, fresh and dry (4.5 grams/litre of residual sugar), with balanced acidity and vigorous, citrusy, limey, spicy flavours, showing excellent harmony, delicacy and depth. Best drinking mid-2022+.

Grüner Veltliner is an Austrian variety ideally suited for our limestone hills; here it expresses its place in the world. Attractive aromas of light peach, pear, spice and nuttiness are accompanied with a burst of flavour and fullness in the mouth, along with minerality and persistence.
