Wine Review: This light gold colored Grüner Veltliner from Blenheim opens with a faint Bosc pear bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium plus bodied with integrated medium acidity. The mouthfeel is a nicely balanced and round. The flavor profile is a gentle bosc pear and almond blend with notes of chamomile tea and green tea. The finish is dry and its flavors and acidity drift away nicely. I would pair this food friendly Gruner with a mahi-mahi sandwich. Enjoy – Ken
