Nigl, one of Austria’s best known wineries for making quality wine, presents Freiheit (Freedom in German) as their entry-level Gruner. It’s lip-smacking good. Medium-high acidity, apple, grapefruit and crunchy pear smells and flavors along with subtle, tell-tale varietal sensations of white pepper, celery root, fennel and green lentils (not to intimidate you with the last three…you need to search for these flavors to get them, really). Enjoy this as you would a dry, crisp Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio…a really good one!
