Manni Nossing Gruner Veltliner

2021 - Manni Nössing’s sliver of Alto Adige is an Alpine paradise nestled in a high-elevation valley in the Dolomites and near the Austrian border. This part of the region, cut off from Mediterranean currents that cross much of Alto Adige, is ideally suited to white wines that are at once chiseled, bracing, and profound. In this bottling, charming flavors of ripe white peaches and apricot give way to a stony, precise, and intensely refreshing finish that would beautifully suit sushi or grilled shrimp tacos.--Tom Wolf (Kermit Lynch)
