Staff Pick Notes

WIP

The Müller-Thurgau grape is the daughter of Riesling, and this beautifully executed Garlider has inherited her delicate aromatics and crisp, refreshing nature. Subtle fruits such as underripe peach and melon, green apple, and lemon grace the nose, followed by gentle notes of grass, hay, and aromatic flowers. It is a crisp, saline, savory wine, yet it has a roundness on the palate reminiscent of a Pinot Grigio or Muscadet. This is the perfect wine to accompany charcuterie, flaky fish with lemon and herbs or to simply cleanse the palate and ease the soul after a long day.

Situated on the historic boundary between Italy and Austria, the two autonomous regions were returned to Italy after World War I (hence why they are often lumped together). Alto-Adige retains great pride in its Germanic heritage, evidenced by the dual language bottle labels appearing in the region. Alto-Adige is most...
