Racy, with flint, grass and citrus zest flavors in a tangy package. Drink now. 28 cases made. -MW

This unoaked wine, made from the red-hot Austrian variety, is very dry and high in acidity. It has a grassy, gooseberry tang reminiscent of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, with some richer, chewier notes of figs and green apples. There’s a spritziness that may calm down over the coming months.——S.H.(9/1/2008)—— 87
