Weingut Familie Bauer Barig Alte Reben 2019 Review

Grüner Veltliner and Roter Veltliner are buddies. They aren’t related yet have similar characteristics to each other. In the Wagram wine region of Austria just down the River Danube from Vienna, the Bauer family makes wines from both of these varieties in the white wine category. But they blend them for their orange/amber wine. These light and spicy grapes take on a deep pungent honeyed note when they stay in contact with their skins for five or so months with some spicy agave and a minerally waft of river rocks. The palate is deep and wide with a slight tannic frame and adds some herbed cheese aroma to the vibe.
