WTN: Hugo Gruner Veltliner 2008

Light gold in the glass,

Lemon, peppery on the nose.

Medium weight, spicy, grapefruit, lemon, bitter citrus peel, peppery, clean, crisp.

Mouthwatering, tart, citrus peel on the finish.

Rather simple and straightfoward but still enjoyable.

Screwcap closure.

Purchased at $13.95 (Canadian).

Very nice example of the varietal for the price.

I like the Huber wines as introductions to Gruner Veltliner for those who have not had the grape before.
