About this wine
- Organic
- Vegan
Aromas of white peach, lime rind and fresh herbs mingle with the intriguing flavors of gooseberry, stone fruit and wet stones on the palate for a crisp, distinctive experience. To maintain bright fruit character and delicate floral aromas, we ferment in stainless steel tanks before aging in a French oak/acacia hybrid barrels.
Vintage Notes
2023 was an amazing year! Early spring rains soaked the vines, continuing into early summer with three times the usual rainfall. This cooler, late-ripening vintage allowed for longer hang times, resulting in the darkest reds and intense whites we've seen in years. Look out for vintage 2023 - it's going to be one for the books.
