2023 Grüner Veltliner
NEW RELEASE
Grüner Veltliner accounts for approximately one-third of all the wine grapes grown in Austria and is widely planted in the Czech Republic and Slovakia as well, but just under 150 acres are estimated to be planted in California. We planted our first Grüner vines in 2010 because, truthfully, our winemaking team wanted it. See, they’re wine geeks. And wine geeks love Grüner because it has a wonderful spicy minerality combined with pop rock acidity, it’s über aromatic, and it’s a great wine to pair with food. So, their wish was granted and 2023 marks our tenth vintage of this delicious varietal.
On the palate, our 2023 Grüner Veltliner is medium-bodied with soft balanced acidity and notes of minerality. Loads of citrus, green apple and pear define the wine, complemented by hints of pineapple that lead into a crisp, tropical fruit finish.
