The H-A Wine Review

We had a rather nice Austrian Gruner Veltliner 2005 in Chez Bruce the other night. At £27 for half a bottle (we were dining late and I had school in the morning), it was not cheap but was definitely interesting. Unfortunately in very un-Chez Bruce style, it was not particularly well chilled but once cool enough was ready to be inbibed.
A mixture of peach and lemon intially, with a really long finish, this is a very complex wine, definitely not to everyone's taste but dry enough not to be sticky and oily enough to go with any fish or white meat dish.
