Groovy GV: 2014 WEINGUT HOLZER Gruner Veltliner “Wagram”

2014 WEINGUT HOLZER Gruner Veltliner “Wagram”
$9.95 bottle/ $95.00 case

Now this is just getting ridiculous! Last year I was carrying this vivacious GV and thought at $14.95 it was a killer buy in terrifically satisfying Austrian gruner, with it’s aromas and bright flavors of minerals, citrus zest, pippin apple, and fresh white pepper. So now it turns out the distributor is ready to move onto new vintages, and they offered us the remaining stock of this 2014 (drinking SO well right now!) at a rather shocking and irresistible discount. Needless to say I am all in. If you’re pondering any food item that relates to, has lived in, or goes anywhere near a body of of water, then this is must drink wine. A fabulous Best Buy that you need to taste! Wow!!
