The pepper, flower, and stone-scented 1999 Gruner Veltliner Smaragd Weissenkirchen Achleiten is a well-balanced, medium-bodied effort. It has loads of minerals in its tightly wound and bright character. Drink it over the next 2-3 years. Importer: Vin Divino, Chicago, IL; tel. (773) 334-6700.

Muskmelon, snap pea and beet root figure in the distinctive aromatics of this Achleiten. Very creamy and rich, this displays its minerality more by way of overt stoniness than pepper or slate. Long finish of snap pea, melon and stone.
