The wine that took its time. This wine finished its slow, steady ferment near Christmas time. Hand-picked in early August, a week earlier than we had ever picked before. Honeydew melon, lemon, ocean brine, green apple dipped in honey, grapefruit pith, and a distinct rocky minerality. As the wine sits in the glass, beautiful hints of jasmine emerge which counterbalance the acid perfectly.

This wine is a lightweight boxer in its prime. It has energy and texture. It surprises you and dances around your palette, with a tiny bit of tannin from the skin contact. This beautiful Sémillon is layered with bright acid, herbal notes like thyme and tarragon, truffle honey, caramel, citrus, candied lemon peel, and orange blossom.

The melody is Merlot, with harmonies from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cab Franc, and a bit of Syrah. Notes of plum, smoke, cola, Chinese 5-spice, orange, cedar, mushroom, and earth. Complex, balanced, with fine tannins. This is a very food-friendly wine, pairable with almost anything depending on your mood.
