2017 Anton Bauer Ried Gmirk Gruner Veltliner

I was not overwhelmed by this a few days ago, but admitted it might have suffered from following a bit heavier wine. So I tried it again and, voila it is much better. The nose has fresh cut Granny Smith apples and citrus. On the palate there is a refreshing combination of honey, green apples, bit of lemon. Nice mouthfeel, crisp acidity. Bit of pepper on the mid-palate. A light, lingering, lemony finish. Overall it is juicy and lovely. B+
