Description:
This 2006 vintage of the Spitzer Point is exactly what a Gruner Veltliner should be. Big structure. Lots of complexity. Excellent length. Loaded with notes of bright green pea shoots, ripe pears, wet slate, cucumbers, green hazelnuts (and an overall, subtle nuttiness), as wells as a creamy layers of almonds, amaretto, and florals. And, believe it or not (but really do believe it), all of these notes are woven together with impeccable harmony. Do not miss this wine.
