From: Carnuntum, Austria

Varietal: Gruner Veltliner

Tasting Notes: Medium weight with loads of green herbs and white pepper, this stainless steel fermented Gruner is bright and refreshing. Certifiably delicious, especially if Spring weather shows up sometime soon!

"While this region east of Vienna is more known for red wines, Walter Glatzer pulled off an impressive grüner veltliner from the loess-rich soils of his organically farmed vineyards. It's silky, full and fresh, a hint of slatey minerality under the pineapple fruit. And the acidity remains vivacious for days after opening." —Wine and Spirits, 92 Points

Pairing: We love to pair a good Gruner with bright, savory Vietnamese dishes such as Chicken and Herb Salad with Nuoc Cham by Yewande Komolafe found in the New York Times.
