The ultimate in food friendly wines, Gruner goes with just about anything and anyone. A fruit driven style of Gruner Veltliner with a luscious texture, medium weight in a dry style.
Floral, white pepper, and pip-fruit aromas on the nose , similar fruit flavours including spice and pears come through on the palate, all underpinned by mineral characters and refreshing acidity.
The wine looks like one I shall enjoy and boast of once having consumed it.I intend sharing this splendid red with our son over Christmas - happy to furnish you with a tasting review then and , hopefully, purchase a few more bottles.
Took a punt on the 2011 Kairos Sauvignon Blanc & was pleasantly surprised at the drinkability of aged Sauv, I do not usually drink Sauvignon Blanc's but after drinking the Kairos I will drink more.
A little bit of pungency evident upon opening and best to let it breath for 30 minutes or so and the pungency dissipated and then the wine started to show its best - good fruit, vanilla/oak, balance and elegance!
