Weingut Walek Gruner Veltliner 2005 Spatlase

Variety: Gruner Veltliner
Country of origin: Austria
Wine appellation: Niederosterreich
Vintage: 2005
Alcohol content: 12.5%
Color: straw yellow
Bouquet: expressive, honey, stewed pear, spiciness, herbs
Taste: medium body, very round and gentle, oily, almost no acidity and although classified as dry it feels like sweeter style, spicy, honey, almonds, and herbs infusion, medium to longer nicely lingering finish
Recommended food pairing: pecorino
Overall score: 4+8+12+6+6=86
Price: CZK 180 in 2009
Stopper: single piece cork
Very bottle aged and honey like style GruVe. Definitely this needs to go with very aromatic cheese due to honey and herb style. For comparison check my notes from December 2012.
