New Arrival from Italy! Perfect for the patio!!
Several TWCP employees attended the biggest trade tasting in STL this summer and of all the high-end wines we tried (we are talking multiple tables of $200+ bottles) this humble Gruner was seriously one of the most memorable for us! This is a perfect wine for winding down the summer and will pair nicely with your backyard garden harvest.
The monastery that produces this wine is in the northernmost winemaking region in Italy, and has been making wine for over 850 years!
Aromas of canteloupe, Granny Smith apple and smoke follow over to the vibrant palate along with lemon drop, white pepper and wild herb. Bright acidity and flinty mineral notes impart fabulous energy.

The Abbazia di Novacella 2021 Alto Adige Valle Isarco Grüner Veltliner is an open-knit white with peach, pineapple and baked apple. This medium-weight wine closes with a silky texture and a lean finish. Three-quarters of the must is fermented and aged in stainless steel and one-quarter goes into large oak casks. The vines are rooted in glacier soils with quartz and other mineral deposits. Best after 2022.
