2020 Belden Barns Estate Sonoma Mountain Grüner Veltliner

The first Grüner Veltliner to be planted in Sonoma, this exceptional wine has surpassed all of our highest expectations. A beautiful combination of cool mineral notes and zesty pear and citrus, this is an amazing food pairing wine that’s “different” in the best way. There’s a reason Sonoma Magazine named our Grüner as One of 8 to Try Before You Die. What we love about Grüner Veltliner, especially those Austrian examples that reach the riper, or Smaragd classification, is how much depth and complexity they can achieve.  This wine matches that profile.  A kaleidoscope of aroma and flavor held in focus by a proper core of acidity, this wine evolves as you taste it.  As expected from a Grüner, this is a very versatile food wine that can pair with both light and heavier cuisine. 171 cases.
