"Markus Huber's 2018 Grüner Veltliner Inzersdorf Ried Zwirch 1ÖTW displays a pleasing and very elegant bouquet, finely aromatic with ripe fruit mingled with notes of flint and crushed stone. Straightforward and refined, the palate is crystalline, a saline grüner veltliner that captivates us with its concentrated yet refreshingly structured fruit." (Wine Advocate 2019)

About the wine:
Clean minerality and clarity in the form of freshly squeezed lemons, green mangoes, papaya, wet stone and orange peel. Both powerful and delicate, it delivers a medium- to full-bodied texture with finely blended citrus and nectarine flavors. Spicy and lemony, it finishes long with mineral and spicy notes. Drink now.
