The couple has since expanded into other cool climate varieties, bringing the same site-focused approach that built the vineyard's reputation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis Grüner Veltliner comes from a small parcel within Lahoma Vineyard, grown on the property's distinctive sandstone soils. Grapes are cold soaked prior to pressing, then fermented and aged in large format neutral oak, a method chosen to preserve the variety's natural texture without adding noticeable wood character. The approach reflects a classically Austrian style of winemaking, adapted to the vineyard's cool, lake-moderated climate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe wine offers a plump, textured palate balanced by nervy acidity, with flavors of citrus, tropical fruit, white pepper, and green herbs rounding out to a stony, saline finish. It carries real energy without losing its sense of place. Pair it with roasted pork, herb-crusted chicken, or a soft, tangy goat cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Apollo's Praise","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46684528279738,"sku":"105162","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0724\/6836\/5498\/files\/ApollosPraiseGrunerLabel.jpg?v=1789673164","url":"https:\/\/bassins.com\/products\/2025-apollos-praise-gruner-veltliner-seneca-lake-750ml","provider":"MacArthur Beverages","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
