Glatzer Gruner Veltliner 2007, $11
So here is the second addition to the wine review section. Sitting down with three other friends, we all tried a nice glass of Gruner. This Austrian white is known for its crisp minerality and citrus fruit.
The nose and taste were very similar. Not an upfront wine, and the strongest fruit was grapefruit (similar to that of a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc). Very straw-like in color. This wine definitely has bright acidity that would compliment a fatty fish, like Salmon or a fried dish like Falafel. I think the wine is nice, but would serve best with food rather than alone.
On a scale from 1-10:
Megan 7
Bettina 4.8
