Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar: Pale green-yellow. The nose makes a refreshing impression with its pronounced floral fragrance; juicy apple, pear and citrus aromas; and typical peppery veltliner spice. A robust fruit core and firm mineral structure yield a balanced wine with good finesse. Wine Spectator Insider: 90 points: Minerally and well-structured, with well-defined apple, green peach and citrus flavors. Subtle spice and pepper notes on the crisp finish. Drink now through 2012.
