Longview now have found their stride with GV, the little Austrian grape that particularly likes the Adelaide Hills.
Longview, Macclesfield, Grüner Veltliner, Adelaide Hills, 2022
Pale lemon hue. Very aromatic, practically leaping from the glass. Centered lemon zest and “Golden Delicious” apple pomme fruit. Fragrant green herb to almost dill, spiced with white pepper, flaked almonds and smooth white rocks. Balanced, understated and precise. Textural weight provides carry for a long, flavoursome finish full of apple and citrus. Classy drinking for right now or wait a few years and appreciate the development.
