2023 F.X. Pichler Durnsteiner Gruner Veltliner Wachau, Austria

(90 Points) The 2023 Grüner Veltliner Dürnsteiner is made from the younger vines in the single sites Mühlpoint, Klosteratz, Loibenberg, Kellerberg and Steinertal. A riper aspect immediately promises pear, pepper and white miso. The palate is rounded, smooth, and vivid with white miso and gentle pear peel. It is smooth, with a concentrated mid-palate and a savory finish. (Bone-dry) Vinous, Review Date: 07/2024
