Weingut Tement – Grassnitzberg Sauvignon Blanc 1 STK 2014 – Südsteiermark

Youthful with a quite pale colour intensity, slight green hue. The nose remains youthful as well. More with an emphasis on stoniness and minerality. There are some herbal and floral notes, with fresh lemon, lime, lemongrass. There is a good bite on the palate. Medium weight, but with good flavour intensity. Still it is quite youthful and restrained in terms of fruitiness. Knowing this style there is certainly more to come in terms of expression. Fine extract there, really mouth-watering and salivating. It does have a good length, quite lingering with a pure mineral finish. Restrained today if you do not know this style, but certainly something that will continue to develop for the coming few years. Good purity. Fine potential.
