Tasting profile

Structure: medium-bodied, high acidity, dry

Nepenthe was among the first Australian producers to plant Grüner Veltliner, in the cool Adelaide Hills. The wine is fermented in stainless steel and bottled young to keep its crunch. It shows lime and green pear, a snap of snow pea and the white-pepper spice typical of the grape. It is dry and medium-bodied, with bright acidity. Drink within two or three years of the vintage, with spiced dishes, green vegetables and schnitzel.
