Kelley Fox Gruner Veltliner 2023 Willamette Valley, Oregon

Style 😋: Crisp, lively, and delightfully mineral-driven with bright citrus, green apple and a hint of white pepper. Medium-bodied, with a racy acidity that makes it vibrant and refreshing, great for sipping on its own but perfect for pairing.

Producer: Kelley Fox

Grape 🍇: Grüner Veltliner

Place 🌎: Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA

Story 📖: Kelley Fox is a natural wine pioneer in Oregon, known for crafting wines that reflect the purity of their site with minimal intervention. Full-time at Kelley Fox wines since 2015, Kelley honed her craft under the mentorship of David Lett at The Eyrie Vineyards, and further refined her skills at Torii Mor, Hamacher, and Scott Paul Wines before establishing her own winery in 2007. 

This wine is fermented with native yeasts and sees no filtration or fining, allowing the vibrant fruit and minerality to shine through. Bottled with minimal sulfur, it’s an expression of Oregon Grüner that balances freshness with complexity.
