Gruner Veltliner
Gruner Veltliner
An up-and-coming grape variety, Gruner Veltliner is planted primarily in Austria with additional European plantings in the Czech Republic and Slovakia along with small amounts of New World vines in the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Gruner, as it is known, is considered to be a grape of great quality, producing pure, racy wines with green-fruit and a peppery, herbal character. The best wines age beautifully and the wine develops complexity, with layers of honey and stone-fruit.
