Vintage Notes
The fruit was cold soaked on its skins for 14 hours before being lightly pressed.
Fermented in small batches, we played around with various yeast strains and temperature. This has allowed the complexity you see in the glass. This wine is textural as well as very fruit driven.
From The Wine maker
“Please enjoy on its own or with any summer occasion.
We look forward to seeing how it develops over time and becomes more interesting with age. Enjoy!”

Reviews
Racing away as this producer’s strongest wine, this peach-hued drop comes with a delicate, attractive nose of cherries, peaches, strawberry leaf and blossoms. The palate is dry with crunchy fruit and a herbal leafy undertone. The finish is long and tangy. It is a softly spoken food-friendly wine that would be great with a wide array of summer dishes.
