2020 Innovation Series: Starry Night

Starry Night is our first “Black Chardonnay”. Don’t fear - the wine isn’t black! .... The term is for an alternative winemaking technique where the juice is exposed to LOTS of oxygen. It is a bit unnerving, as the juice temporarily turns very dark, but then reveals its smooth texture and brilliance after fermentation. We hop you enjoy taking this leap of faith into the dark with up! 

Sunfleck yellow in color. This wine has an impactful and alluring bouquet of green mango, meyer lemon, and sweet and spicy ginger candy. The entry is silky smooth and bursting with flavor persistence, the midpalate is dense and substantial. The finish is warmly spiced and lingering. - Rachel Rose, Winemaker. Spring 2021.
