Wine OR Wine & Food

Gruner Veltliner is likely the best white grape you haven't experienced enough of! Crisp, rich, grapefruity, peppery, minerally, great with food or on it's own, Gruner's got it all. For this tasting, we'll taste through five delicious examaple to highlight the nuances and difference of the grape and the wine regions of Austria, with the highlight being a stunning and rare 15-year-old Gruner! Austrian wine expert Richard Serrano of L'Eft Bank Wine Company will be on hand for the 6 p.m. seating to share his first-hand experience with Austria and these wines.
