Grüner Veltliner isn’t a grape that’s often seen in California, so growing it there was something of a risk for the Zocker winery.

It’s full of lively lemon, lime & ripe melon notes, with hints of candied ginger & a characteristic kick of white pepper. Its refreshing, steely minerality makes it a great choice for rich & creamy goat’s cheese dishes. ...
