Not GlouGlou - The wine is concentrated and coiled. The aromatics are rather light and heady, but there is an undeniable intensity about the frozen raspberry, and candied strawberry assemblage. The palate is fiercely pure. Herbal yet undeniably fruit centric. That same intensity is revealed in the palate weight and structure that reads more warm vintage CDP than 13% crunchy California. This wine will continue to unwind the more air you give it.
REGION:
Santa Cruz Mountains
WINEMAKING:
In the cellar we opted to go 100% whole cluster to accentuate aromatics and concentrate the palate. The wine was fermented with 100% ambient yeast, and the only additive used was S02 (<40ppm). The wine was then aged for 10 months in neutral 500L puncheons with one racking before being bottled unfiltered.
PAIRINGS: Roasted chicken, pulled pork, red sauce based pasta dishes.
