We were thrilled with the feedback on our inaugural release of this wine last year, especially from those familiar with Smaragd (the ripest level for dry wines produced in the Wachau) Grüners from Austria.  Many felt that while obviously Californian in its exuberance of fruit, the flavors and aromas clearly spoke of Grüner Veltliner.  An additional acre has been planted at the vineyard so hopefully we can increase production a bit and get this special wine into more hands.
