Is that a bottle opener on the end of your cork screw? Why
would you need that? Some of your friends are beer drinkers – gasp! Perhaps that's why, or perhaps you need a bottle opener to open your wine.
Seeing the closure on this week’s Wine Wednesday feature,
the 2015 H&M Hofer Bio Grüner Veltliner, caused me to add it to my
cart. It’s the first time I’ve seen a
wine that you needed a bottle opener to open. I found this at Whole Foods (It’s
made with organic grapes) and I couldn’t resist.
To be honest, I didn’t have high hopes. It’s like the first
time I saw a bottle of wine with a screw cap, could it be any good?
Well, yes it can be. I loved
it. It’s one of the best Grüner Veltliners I have ever had. Notes of pear, honey, and orange blossom on
the nose presented slightly sweet with big fruit and white pepper on the palate. It was lively on the tongue, evidence of stainless
steel fermentation, and it delighted with a long finish. It was a perfectly balanced wine, which makes
it extremely versatile.
So, do you have to finish it all in one setting? No, not
unless you want to. Though you can’t put the bottle cap back on, one of my wine
stoppers seals it nicely. I wrote this
blog post last night while sipping on a glass, and have plans to enjoy it with
Parmesan Encrusted Tilapia for dinner tonight.
Next time, I’ll plan ahead, and serve it with Wiener Schnitzel Hamburg
Style, Lyonnaise Potatoes and Lettuce Salad with Hot Bacon Vinaigrette, and
relive some fond food memories of days spent in Austria. Click the links below
