Refreshing acidity and soft tannins, this wine is easy to pair with a variety of foods!

If you have had our Donausonne Blaufrankisch, this is nothing like it! A beautiful dry wine, enticing minerality, cherry, red fruits with an underlying herbaceous quality. A light body, great acidity and light tannins. Let this wine surprise you with its versatility when it comes to pairing with a dish. A great companion to poultry or red meat!
Sohm & Kracher $16.00
Austria does many things well, Gruner Veltliner is definitely included in that list. A gorgeous high acid white with delicate floral aromas, minerality, stone fruits and white pepper on the palate. One liter bottle making this an excellent value buy!
Kracher Beerenauslese $27.00
Forget Sauternes! Few producers have achieved the worldwide recognition that Kracher has got. A specialist is dessert wine, this one in particular showcases Zweigelt. Beautifully sweet, still with amazing acidity, it shows baked cherry notes, dried stone fruits and honey. This can go toe to toe with Chateau d'Yquem.
