Blenheim Vineyards Grüner Veltliner 2021 Review
Kirsty Harmon of Blenheim Vineyards is making great Virginia wine. She one of the new winemakers in the Commonwealth changing things up and listening to the land rather than chasing trends. This Grüner shows that energy. It has a wonderfully balanced nose with ripe pear and apple notes and the slightest hint of pepper. The palate is calm with deep fruit due to medium acidity and a dry edge.
