Press
Every year the Gruner Veltliner grape proves its versatility...the Kollmitz vineyard is high and sloping, steepling down towards the Danube, and it produces a unique white. The texture is as soft as souffle or ile flottante, dotted with salted Devon butter; a touch of pepper and spritz break up this mild yeasty cake, and you realise there's a nip of bitterness in the wine, a bitterness like guava pips, or the pips of pears, which only underscores the smooth, cool fruit of slightly underripe pears and chilled white melon that makes this such a high quality glugger.
