De Vine Vineyards Grü-V Grüner Veltliner Estate 2014

Saanich Peninsula, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, CanadaTasted just after bottling and showing some initial bottle shock. That said, with air time in the glass, this grüner came right around to reveal the crisp citrus-y herbs, lime pith, wildflowers, savoury stone and green apple that I've come to recognize from this Saanich Peninsula site (and Canada's first commercially produced grüner veltliner in 2012). A slender 11 percent alcohol, finishing with shining lemon peel and delicate white pepper spice. Pour with shellfish or white fish with lemon dill and arugula. More a whisper than a shout, and a reward to the patient.Tasted: 31 May 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
