Schmid – Grüner Veltliner 2023 FRECHAU Krems 1ÖTW – Kremstal

The nose is intense with pronounced flavours of oak and toast. We do also have a nice buttery profile. With air, the second nose has got more intensity with nice ripe lemon, mango and tangerine with always the barrel notes. The mouth is clean and clear with a light toast of pine tree. There is lemon and lime with some apple and pineapple. It is long and sharp with a good acidity and a little astringency in the finish. The integration of the barrel in the mouth is extremely delicate with no overpower. In the style of ageing in barrel this type of grape, it is a nice wine.
