- WINEMAKER: Graham Tatomer
- FARMING: Practicing Organic
- VARIETY: 100% Grüner Veltliner
- TERROIR: Sourced from two vineyards: John Sebastiano in the Sta. Rita Hills AVA and Kick-on Ranch west of Los Alamos. The name 'Meeresboden,' meaning 'Ocean Soil' in German, reflects the marine-influenced soils of these sites.

- AGING: Aged on lees in stainless steel and acacia vessels to enhance texture and complexity.
- TASTING NOTES: Aromas of jasmine, green pear, grapefruit, and lemon oil are complemented by bright saline notes, offering a vibrant and effusive character.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: Pairs well with seafood dishes, light salads, and Asian cuisine.
- SCORES: 93 Points – Wine Advocate (October 2024)
- ANALYSIS: Alcohol: 13% | Residual Sugar: <1 g/L (Dry)
