Kelby James Russell is the former Winemaker at Red Newt Cellars.  For almost a decade he has produced exceptional wines under his signature Winemaker Series inspired by different wine regions in the world close to Kelby's heart, including Riesling, Cabernet Franc and Dry Rose of Cabernet Franc.

There are oceans of Grüner Veltliner, both in the New World and Austria, that are pleasant but nondescript white wines. Coming from the back portion of The Knoll vineyard site, with all the opulence that pedigree implies, the KJR Grüner Veltliner takes as its inspiration and goal the dense, weighty, and powerful styles that mark top-end Austrian examples. White pepper, flint, and rich fruit run from the nose right through to the palate and finish, with more structure provided by the long ferment in neutral French oak barriques.
