2023 Kelley Fox Wines Gruner Veltliner Willamette Valley, USA

Kelley Fox Wines Grüner Veltliner 2023

The Grüner is always a really fun wine to produce, and I’m happy every year that I can offer this

bottling to you. Finally, there’s a bit more! This wine was tank-fermented and is ML-complete.

It’s the colour of sunshine and is a highly transparent. I love looking at it in the glass. The nose

is full of fresh, creamy citrus, melon, delicious warming spices and minerals. The mouth is the

same and has a certain build to it that reminds me of Juhfark or Furmint. The texture is both rich

and weightless, and yes, it has the classic Grüner finish of a touch of white pepper. It has

wonderful acidity one might expect from an alpine wine. For me, this wine has radiant energy.
