Stephen Brook | Pretty and delicate lime nose, reticent but charming. This has some richness on the palate, and while lacking the attack of Riesling, has broad and generous fruit without straying into heaviness. Succulent lime and apple fruit, balanced and harmonious, with moderate length leading to a sweet and sour finish. | 89

Andrew Jefford | Pale, bright gold. Fresh, green, and quietly herbaceous: felted leaves and plant sap. Attractive rather than raw or unripe, but blind you might almost suspect this was a Sauvignon Blanc/GV blend. The palate follows through on the aromatic promise, with a cool, lean, sinewy, softly herbaceous style of GV—GV for Sauvignon lovers. Well done on its own style terms, though my own personal preference is for something a little more ripe and more ample. | 86

Stephan Reinhardt | Earthy and vegetal (leek) aromas on the nose of the 2018 Nussberg Grüner Veltliner ask for aeration. This wine doesn’t want to show much at this stage. The palate is dense, fresh, and tight, and the finish really mineral, with good phenols. However, the wine remains closed and is giving not much more than promises to improve over the next years. There is really a lot of tension, grip, and vitality here. | 92
