About This Wine


Lazy Breeze

Grüner Veltliner

With Pacific fogs and ocean breezes, Edna Valley is a great spot to grow the Grüner Veltliner grape. Practical and easy on the palate, this wine is a go-to in its native Austria—and it’s easy to see why. Clean, complex, and with a generous acidity, it goes well with everything from confit chicken to zucchini to cod. Get ready to experience refreshing notes of guava, passion fruit, and honeysuckle combined with a light burst of white peach sherbet. Enjoy with light meats, white fish, or simply as a palate cleanser—this one’s a real all-rounder. Judges love it too! It took home 91 points and a Gold Medal at the 2020 Winemaker Challenge and a Bronze medal at the 2020 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition.

Wine Region


Edna Valley

Situated in the southern portion of the Central Coast, Edna Valley is one of California's best-kept secrets. The region produces balanced Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, plus fragrant Syrah and Viognier. Here it is all about the terroir. Edna lies close to the coast, encircled by volcanic hills that give the valley its rich array of soils. As the cool air and fog swirl in off Morro Bay, they are trapped by the mountains, creating the longest growing season in the entire state. This allows grapes to ripen gently over a long period, developing their full spectrum of flavors while staying impressively fresh.
