2025 Brundlmayer, Willi - Gruner Veltliner L & T (750ml)
Willi Bründlmayer is one of Austria’s legendary names. The family estate in Langenlois has made the Kamptal a benchmark for Grüner Veltliner, and its vineyards are certified organic. L&T stands for “leicht und trocken,” light and dry. It’s the estate’s lightest, freshest Grüner of each vintage. The fruit comes from cooler, high-elevation terraces at 260 to 380 meters, on stony primary rock and loess. It’s picked early, gently whole-cluster pressed, fermented cool in stainless steel and bottled young to capture all that vibrant fruit. Expect crisp green apple, citrus and white peach, a touch of white flowers and Grüner’s signature white pepper snap. It finishes juicy and refreshing at just 11% alcohol. It’s a perfect weeknight white with salads, shellfish, grilled fish, roast chicken or anything with Asian spice.
