Domaine not that well -known but long established family, attractive label, SC, good price at $18 Cdn.
Bright light yellow color, nose opened nicely with apple, spice, lime, fruity,
Initial entry thought was not too complex, would be a great summer patio wine. Lively, crisp, apple for sure, some rs, medium bodied, very good acidity with a little carbonation. "Apricot, tasty, not too serious" from across the table.
The wine lacked the complexity of many higher end GVs but as an introduction, this is fine. Food was veal scallopini with penne in a cream sauce.

Was he active 10+ years ago? I remember on a trip to Brussels around 2003-2005 that I went to a private house which supposedly had the best selection of Austrian wine in the city. I'm forgetting the details but I remember being struck by the fact that there was no list and I had to chat with the man about what I might like to buy and what he might have. If it is the same fellow, it appears his web/information presence has greatly developed!
