Hirtzberger Gruner Veltliner Federspiel Spitzer Rotes Tor 2003

"Classic Rotes Tor in the way it encases its ripeness in a firmly minerally package, this is powerful, even muscular. In this hot vintage, the ripely luscious fruit seems to exist purely as puppy fat, not at all detracting fromthe deeper underlying character of the wine. A hue Federspiel, beautiful in its terroir expression."
-Wine & Spirits

The Rotes Tor vineyard, on granatic soil high above the Danube, is one of the top sites of the Wachau. It produces Gruners of class and breeding and this one is no exception! Showing mineral, stone, chalk, and spice aromas.
