A hazy white from an organic winery helmed by a female vigneron. Gruner Veltliner is the primary white grape of Austria, and in the cool climate of Carnuntum it retains a lovely green note, like ripe kiwi and honeydew, with touches of yeastiness and salt. Incredibly invigorating. Native yeast, no filtering or fining. "Christina Netzl began her path towards natural winemaking as a young girl of 5 years old, working on her family’s farm and vineyard with her parents and grandparents. Her parents later focused the family business solely on grape growing and winemaking, building the winery up to the 28 hectares they operate today in the Carnuntum winemaking region, located just east of Vienna and north of the Neusidler see. Christina studied oenology and wine management in London, getting to know wine styles from all over the world. In 2007, she returned to the winery to work with her parents, and after having two children became passionate about organic viticulture. They began the process of converting everything to organics in 2013 starting with soil treatments and elimination of herbicides, followed by eliminating pesticides and 100% organic vineyard management and then finally organic production in the winery. In 2018 they began the official process of certifying organically. Over the last 10 years working at the winery, Christina has fallen in love with ancient winemaking practices and thus has now launched this natural line of wines we are proud to represent." - Jenny & Francois *Natural and Organic Staff Review: "Christina lets her soil and growing methods do the talking. A fun and clean natural Gruner with tons of bright fruit and salinity. Grab a bottle and enjoy in the sunshine." "Bright, lovely, and certified organic! Don’t let the sediment scare you - it’s natural, and still drinks crisp and clean with big citrus and pear notes. Pairs perfect with pork or vegetarian meals (Try our korean tofu bowl!)"
