Sohm & Kracher Grüner Veltliner Burgenland 2023

12.5% ABV

Sohm & Kracher is a collaboration between Aldo Sohm, head sommelier at Le Bernardin restaurant in NYC, and Gerhard Kracher from Weingut Kracher in Austria. The grapes for this project are sourced from Weinviertel — a region they recognized as underestimated, given its old vineyards, diverse soils, and unique microclimate — and made in accordance with two basic principles: the wines should be (low to) moderate in alcohol and should never be unctuous in character. The wines are produced at Gerhard's family winery in Illmitz, Austria.

This is a fantastic Grüner that is fresh and racy, affordable, and comes in a Liter bottle. A delightful bottle to share with a group and pairs well with lighter fare like whitefish or salty pasta dishes.
