Fort Berens Grüner Veltliner Extended Lees Contact Red Rock Vineyard 2022
Lillooet, British Columbia, CanadaThe first release from a 1 acre block within the estate Red Rock Vineyard appears perfectly adapted to producing a fresh, crisp version of this famous Austrian variety. It was fermented in a 70/30 mix of stainless steel and neutral oak. Gooseberry, kiwi, melon, and passionfruit all deliver a lean, slender white pepper affair that joins a tiny amount of grüners that are turning heads in BC. Keep your eye on this one.Tasted: 15 June 2023Tasted by: Prices:BC | $25.99 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers, grocery |
