This too is elegant and pure but otherwise, it is completely different in character than the Gruenchers with ripe, fresh and punchy medium-full flavors underpinned by well-integrated structured and a subtle minerality that adds lift to the backend. Despite the obvious ripeness, this is cooler and slightly more reserved in character and while the fundamental characters are different, the two wines are qualitative equals.
