Winemaking
Varietals were handpicked on August 29th and gently whole cluster pressed. After cold settling, the wine was fermented at cool temperatures in French oak and Amphora. Malolactic fermentation was slow and steady. Batonnage was performed throughout primary and secondary fermentation. This wine is aged on the lees for 7 months in 47% neutral French oak, 30% Amphora, 23% new French oak.
Ratings
93 pts - The Somm Journal | "Tasting of sea-salted pear, hazelnut, and lemon blossom, this blend of 60% Roussanne and 40% Viognier comes from vineyards overseen by local producers Denner Vineyards and Caliza Winery. The saltiness tickles the tongue of leaves behind honeysuckle and jasmine."
