Always one of Graham's most mineral expressions, the Tatomer 2018 Grüner Veltliner Meeresboden is yet another example of this come to fruition. Right away it becomes clear the influence that the Pacific Ocean has on these vineyards, with a sense of sea spray on the palate and a saline quality on the nose. Texturally, the wine is light and bright, approachable too! This is the kind of Grüner that could get you hooked!
Graham Tatomer began working in the wine business at the age of 16 for Santa Barbara Winery. It soon grew into a passion and in 2003, he packed his bags and moved to Austria to get a better grip on the growing and making of Riesling. He was able to find work with Weingut Knoll who also turned him onto the Grüner Veltliner grape. What initially was planned to be a ten-week trip; turned into a year and two additional harvests in the Wachau. Graham left with abundant knowledge of old world winemaking with a focus on Riesling, Grüner Veltliner, and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). The wines are made with masterful precision and we're proud to have them in the Winestyr portfolio.
