Delta Vineyard ‘Hatters Hill’ Grüner Veltliner 2021

Our flagship Hatters Hill Grüner Veltliner is a fresh and sophisticated example of how the Omaka valley works to increase intensity of the Grüner Veltliner characters. Nectarine, fresh peach and a subtle pepper spice, with afresh and weighty finish. The 2021 vintage started with cool spring weather which extended the length of flowering, leading to open bunches. A long and hot growing season led to lower crop levels with increased intensity of fruit. Ripening steadily throughout the growing period, the fruit was continually monitored until a balance of flavour, acidity and physiological ripeness was reached. Drinking beautifully now, this wine is an ideal match with pan seared seabass and charred asparagus.
