Growing conditions in Unterloiben are ideal for producing world-class Grüner Veltliner and the 2012 Mühlpoint is no exception, cultivated on Leo Alzinger's lower, silty, loess based parcels in the Loibenberg Vineyards. This is a Just a gorgeous Grüner, packed with aromas and flavors of freshly sliced Fuji apple, lime zest, crushed stones, white blossoms along with some hints of honey. On the palate this remains fresh, clean and elegant with a wonderful oily texture that is beautifully balanced by the perfect touch of acidity. The finish is long and pretty marked by stony minerals and bitter almond. A fantastic wine from Leo Alzinger. (Best 2014-2025) - January, 2014 (JD)
