From the Winery:
“The fruit for this wine is sourced from the Helluva and Romani Vineyards located at opposite ends of Anderson Valley and harvested a month apart. A small amount of Pinot Blanc from Rivino Vineyard in Ukiah was added to round out the racy acidity of this wine. Helluva vineyard provides the tropical and herbal notes while Romani provides riper stone fruit characters. Aromas of nectarines, lemon blossoms, and thyme. Mouthwatering flavors of guava and lemon zest interplay with fleshy nectarine, peach pit, bees wax with hints of lemongrass. Fermented in a combination of one third stainless steel tank and two thirds large format, neutral wood barrels allowing stirring and extended lees contact. Malolactic fermentation was avoided, and the wine was sterile filtered before bottling.”
