New Wine Tasted:

RABL GRUNER VELTLINER 2010

This is the first new wine we have received in store from Austria, and i have been looking forward to trying it since it arrived, as to the best of my knowledge i have never tried Austrian wine.

Produced by Weinut Rabl, and comes from the Kamptal region in lower Austria



The nose was very interesting with hints of fresh green apples and a little pear. On the palate there is a strong sense of tropical fruit mixed with a little spicy note and it has a lengthily fresh finish with just a slight tang of acidity.

Definitely a wine for food, would be a great compliment to Asian food and some meatier fish.

As a first Austrian white tried this was a very pleasant surprise and i can see myself drinking this again.
