Another new grape varietal to check off my
list, Kerner! Kerner is a cross between the Riesling grape, a white wine
grape, and Vernatsch, a red wine grape.
The 2013 Eisacktaler Kellerei - Cantina Valle Isarco is a full-bodied aromatic white wine with notes of nectarines and peaches and nice minerality and balance.
The Valle Isarco in Italy's Trentio Alto Adige region closely borders Austria so oftentimes, the 'Valle Isarco' name
on bottles of wine from here will be also labeled with its German-language equivalents Eisacktal or Eisacktaler, according to Wine Searcher.
Picked this up at Oby Lee Winery in Arlington. I always find little gems there, and they have great food as well, especially the crepes. Cheers!
