FX Pichler Gruner Veltliner 'Loibenberg' Smaragd Wachau 2016

This Austrian Gruner seriously overdelivers for the price. Concentrated notes of tart pear, brioche, almond, and white pepper lead to a salty, celery-noted finish. The wine’s savory palate and noticeable layers of texture make this wine a sheer pleasure to sip. Drink now through 2029.
