Winemaker's notes

Harvested on Oct 26th, the grapes were crushed, and allowed contact with the skins for about 12 hours. The juice was then bled off and tank fermented, completing fermentation in 15 days. The wine was aged in older French oak barrels for about three months before bottling. We recommend drinking this wine young, although after a year in bottle, the finish gains complexity.


Pairing with food

Classic pairing is with summer fair such as Salad Niçoise or roasted vegetables, couscous and feta cheese.

Matches with cheese

Pair with aged dry jack, swiss, or mild cheddar
