Winemaker Note
The 2023 Grüner Veltliner opens with aromas of white peach, honeydew melon, hay, and petrichor, layered with earthy notes of moss, lichen, and a touch of white pepper. On the palate, it’s savory with a balanced salinity, complemented by white flowers, lime zest, lemon, and a smooth olive oil texture. Flavors of dried apricot, pepper, and salted melon add a briny depth, leading to a finish of fresh lime zest. Weighty yet clean, with medium acidity, this Grüner pairs perfectly with Dungeness crab, salted cantaloupe with prosciutto, veggie risotto, or seafood.
