Lois Gruner Veltliner, 2008

If you are looking for a change from the white wine you typically enjoy, I suggest you try Lois.  This is from Fred Loimer winery in Austria and it is a Gruner Veltliner*.  Last night I opened a bottle of  Lois, 2008.  On my palate it had a hint of minerality with lemon and frizzante.  It was crisp and clean, pairing easily with food.  I think if I was given this  wine in a blind tasting I would have thought it was a Pinot Grigio.  I enjoyed this with my sushi.   

Winemaker's Notes:  (not available)

*Gruner Veltliner is a grape indigenous to Austria, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic.
