In the glass, this white wine from Mayer am Pfarrplatz offers aromas of quince, apples, nashi pear and pears, complemented by juniper, green peppers and Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, Mayer am Pfarrplatz's Wiener Klassik Grüner Veltliner opens wonderfully aromatic, fruit-driven and balanced. Some wines are dry on the label, others really are.

In the aftertaste, mineral notes of the soils dominated by marl and limestone join in.
