Sonntag GeschlossenGrüner Veltliner ‘Hintaus’ 2019 (750ml)

The “Hinthaus,” sourced from a parcel close to the house, ages only in stainless steal and is bottled “young” – though everything is relative in the universe of Markus Sonntag: This wine saw nearly five years in tank. While the 2016 vintage was a bit more ripe and round, this has a straighter, more focused profile with a great energy and finessed delineation. In a way, this is the most traditionally presenting Grüner of the group, with delicate, airy citrus and white pepper notes.
