2025 Block Verde Grüner Veltliner
The Wine
Exuberant aromatics are a strong-suit for Grüner Veltliner, and here the florals lead with sweet peas and star jasmine, which bloom just as the Grüner is released. On the palate, a sweet fruit follows, like meyer lemon, juicy Sumo orange, or apple tart - building to a chalky and mouth watering crescendo.
The Vintage
The 2025 vintage growing season started early, but a cool summer shifted the ripening pattern and harvest started and ended later than expected, with occasional rain. Heat spikes were brief and moderate. Vines took their time, allowing for longer, slower development that yielded layered, complex wines with depth and polish even at relatively modest sugar levels.
