Lower ABV Joe Bauer's son, Florian, has taken over here and is making wines with a touch more precision and energy with no loss of juicy, intense, flavor. This smells almost salty at first before scents of sliced Granny Smith apple, crisp yellow pear, sweet pea, and white pepper aromas come out of the glass nicely. On the palate the fruit shows its ripeness as the apple turns more Golden Delicious and pear notes get spicy and ripe lemon and lime citrus give drive and energy.
It finishes with nice cut and salty, mineral, bite, but without hard edges and a hint of candied lemon/lime peel, white pepper and chalk flavors sailing on nicely. A fabulously thirst-quenching Grüner at just 12% alcohol but with more than enough stuffing to work at table with spring/summer salads, fish and more. Slides down your gullet almost too quickly. Might be a good idea to have some extra bottles around!
For You If: You enjoy crisp Italian whites and are in the mood for a bit more fruit; you love the zippy freshness of Sauvignon Blanc and want that without any grapefruit or grass character; you're grilling asparagus - this is a great match!
Not For You If: You're looking for richness or oak - this is a nice and juicy 12% alchohol done all in steel.
