Hiedler Ried Thal Kamptal Gruner Veltliner 2010

Golden straw hue that is very clear. the nose is wonderfully mineral driven, with a lime peel, white pepper, dried flowers, citrus notes and fabulous well round acidity. Amazing balance and lithe texture, this is a great wine for summer's lighter meals featuring vegetarian fare.

Expert Review

amazingly good this year, because it’s incredibly detailed and refined, super-clear and almost pixilated; a class löss-GrüVe with hints of caraway and fennel seed, leading to a brief but attractively grassy farewell. Please
note; this isn’t remarkable because it has more fruit or ripeness than usual, but because it has more strength and detail than usual. In any case it’s the best vintage since the wine was created.
