Tasting Notes
Debuting in the Flâneur Wines portfolio for the first time is the 2021 La Belle Promenade Grüner Veltliner. A bouquet of honeycomb, Saturday morning fresh cut grass, lemon verbena, and ripe yellow pear leave us intrigued to taste. Flavors are abundant showcasing classic lemon, grapefruit, with limoncello, and golden hay. A touch of salinity plays with the plush and resinous texture. Refreshing acidity makes this wine the perfect spring and summer selection.

It sits on top of volcanic soils, with the western portion of the site consisting of a thick layer of fractured basalt. Due in part to its high elevation, this site allows for great diversity in concert with our other estate vineyard, Flanerie.
