Sohm & Kracher Lion Gruner Veltliner 2025

Aldo Sohm — head sommelier at New York's Le Bernardin — and Gerhard Kracher (son of the well-regarded Burgenland sweet-wine producer Alois Kracher) launched Sohm & Kracher as a focused Grüner Veltliner project. Sourcing runs through Niederösterreich growers, with a focus on the cool, loess-rich Wagram and Kamptal regions. The wine is positioned as a textural, food-friendly Grüner — not cellar-aged but built for drinking with food.
