Longview, KÜHL, Grüner Veltliner, Adelaide Hills, 2018

Textural, enticing and evocative aromas: like a warm spring roll yet with a steely aroma, underpinned by delicate, assertive crab apple with sliced green beans and light brown spice. Personality plus. Great texture, presence, balance and length of flavour. Still punching among the Australian heavyweights
