Wine of the Week for Dec 27, 2010

Grooner Gruner Veltliner 2008 - $ 13.10
Style: W3
Austria



This is an up and coming yet classic grape that is often called "gru-vee" and for good reason. Look for light citrus notes with hints of pineapple, green apple and vanilla. The palate shows just a touch of spritz with lemon, grapefruit, pineapple flavours and a peppery close. Good body and very good length, it's crisp, clean, very approachable and a good prospect with cream sauces, stir fry or schnitzel. (LCBO 168625)

Currently 203 LCBO stores have 6 or more bottles (according to on-line database)
