Emmerich Knoll Ried Kreutles Gruner Veltliner Federspiel 2020

From the loess soils of the foothill, the 2020 Ried Kreutles Loibner Grüner Veltliner Federspiel is clear, intense and fresh, combining a coolish, elegant, crystalline spiciness with ripe but fresh fruit and seed aromas. On the palate, this is a fresh, elegant and spicy, finely juicy but also crystalline Kreutles Veltliner with a long, intense and salty finish. 12.5% alcohol. Tasted at the domaine in June 2021.

Must be at the upper limit of ripeness for the category, but this is a very elegant gruner veltliner with a peach note, as well as the more familiar herbal aromas of the variety. Excellent balance of ripeness and mineral freshness, the finish long and very food-friendly. Drink or hold.
