Laurenz V. 2016 Singing Gruner Veltliner

In 2004, three wine enthusiasts joined forces: Dieter Huebler, Franz Schweiger and Laurenz M. Moser V. The newly established company, Laurenz V. (Laurenz Five), was named after one of the founding partners, Laurenz Maria Moser the fifth, the grandson of legendary Austrian wine pioneer Lenz Moser lll. Laurenz V. pays respect to the legacy of Lenz Moser lll, or \u201cGrandpa Gru\u0308ner\u201d, who almost single handedly helped Gru\u0308ner Veltliner become Austria\u2019s signature grape variety in the middle of the past century.Laurenz V. produces an elegant, captivating style of Gru\u0308ner Veltliner designed for international appeal and appropriate for diverse cuisines. The wines display brisk acidity, concentration of flavor, subtle spice notes, voluptuous texture and vibrant minerality. To that end, the winery grows and sources grapes from trusted growers in the Kamptal, Kremstal and the Weinviertel regions of lower Austria where Gru\u0308ner Veltliner reaches optimal ripeness while retaining its trademark vivacity.Laurenz V. has been instrumental in propelling Austrian Gru\u0308ner Veltliner into the international spotlight. Laurenz V. wines are enjoyed in 45 countries around the world, and served in fine restaurants from Dublin to Dubai, Oslo, Shanghai, London and Los Angeles. The winery produces seven distinct proprietary Gru\u0308ner Veltliners, four of which are currently available in the United States: Singing, Friendly, Forbidden and Charming.

Tasting Notes

A very attractive fruit bouquet yields apple, peach and citrus aromas along with a typical Veltliner spiciness and a touch of white pepper. The soft and juicy palate is supported by fine acidity. It sings on the palate!
