orange blossom, honeydew, golden delicious

something interesting for your drinking pleasure - an orange made at the demand of pooja. a white wine made like a red, creating a unique texture and flavor not achieved by white or red alone. because that was not interesting enough, we adopted the solera style inspired by sherry production. multiple vintages of wine are blended into a single bottle year after year (n.v. = non-vintage).

it’s not an exact math but this first iteration ratios come out to: 2/3 from 2023 (chenin blanc and vermentino) and 1/3 from 2024 (chardonnay and vermentino). each year, we will bottle about 2/3 of the total volume and the remaining 1/3 of the blend will live on to be part of the following year’s bottle. so yes, by no. 9, there will be 10 vintages blended together and, Nature willing, still taste good.

all grapes are destemmed and crushed by foot. fermentation lasts 20 days, all native yeast and bacteria. pressed and moved to 400L neutral barrel. full malolactic fermentation. aged for 15 months on the lees. racked. bottled unfined and unfiltered. 44 cases produced.
