Domäne Wachau Grüner Veltliner Federspiel Terrassen

 Domäne Wachau is a large co-operative in Austria with vineyards rising from the Danube. Their Grüner Veltliner is their high volume, well priced standard wine.

The 2021 Domäne Wachau Grüner Veltliner Federspiel Terrassen opens with a pale green colour. The bouquet is pronounced with fruity pear notes.

On the palate, pear and green apple flavours deliver a slightly broad and fruity, yet dry mouthfeel. Apricot and fresh marzipan add interest. The wine is lively on the back palate with white peppery notes and pleasant acidity.

This is a versatile food wine, well suited to Asian food. It is made to drink now.

Score: 90/++
