Galen Glen Winery

Known not only locally but nationally and internationally for its Gruner Veltliner and other German-style wines, it’s not a stretch to say Galen Glen is the top dry white wine producer in PA.

In the 1990s, Galen and Sarah Troxell purchased a farm that had been in the Troxell family since the 1830s, with the intention of starting a vineyard. The land is a U-shaped glen — which gives half the name of the vineyard — featuring glacially deposited soil and 360 million-year-old fossils on a 1000 foot high ridge just north of the Blue Mountains.

Galen Glen features the second-oldest planting of Austrian grape Gruner Veltliner in the US (and first east of the Rockies). The grape is not surprisingly their signature one, and has achieved widespread acclaim.

    Had a glass of the dry riesling while out to dinner in Pottstown, PA, and thought it was delish. I ordered four bottles from Galen Glen’s website. The shipment was delivered the next day! We will definitely plan a trip to visit this winery soon.

    Local wineries are often described as “good for PA,” but Galen Glen is good, period. World class Gruner and Riesling, and their other wines are also excellent.
