Lower ABV Joe Bauer is pretty unpretentious guy.  His cousin, Tony (Anton) Bauer, tends to get all the attention and recognition for his Wagram wines.  Joe spends less time seeking recognition and leaves lots of time to play the drums, enjoy his family, teach his son how to make wine, and even help out a bit at his brother's restaurant down the hill.

But he makes some pretty exciting wines every year, even here in his “entry level” Grüner Veltliner from the lower slopes and flatter sites of the Wagram.  And this 2023 is very exciting indeed!  It’s more aromatic than the average Grüner Veltliner, smelling almost salty at first before scents of sliced Granny Smith apple, crisp yellow pear, sweet pea, and white pepper aromas come out of the glass nicely. On the palate the fruit shows its ripeness as the apple turns more Golden Delicious and pear notes get spicy and ripe lemon and lime citrus give drive and energy. It finishes with nice cut and salty, mineral, bite, but without hard edges and a hint of candied lemon/lime peel, white pepper and chalk flavors sailing on nicely. A fabulously thirst-quenching Grüner at just 12% alcohol but with more than enough stuffing to work at table with spring/summer salads, fish and more.  Slides down your gullet almost too quickly.  Might be a good idea to have some extra bottles around!
