Todd on this wine: “We’ve been working with the beautiful fruit from this vineyard, now moved to fully organic practices, since a couple of vintages now. In 2021, the bulk of the white grapes in this field blend suffered from low yields, so the wine is decidedly darker in color, but still as bright and beautiful as ever. This wine was also our first trial bottling to use Reusable/Returnable glass bottles from thegoodgoods.co! Details on return logistics and deposits via QR code / their website.”

Grapes: a dozen red, white, and pink hybrid varieties grown together

Vineyard: Amorici Vineyard, Washington County, NY. Practicing Organic

Making of: The grapes were all harvested together, and the fruit was carbonically macerated for 2 days, then foot-tread and macerated for 2 additional days before being pressed off to stainless steel tank. Unfined, unfiltered, zero SO2 added.

Personality: The foxiness or “grapeyness” of hybrid grapes disappears in this blend into a candied fruit character that puts this wine squarely in the Glou Glou camp, with tart strawberry, cranberry, and cherry all poking through on the nose, and a similar red-fruit salad across the broad but focused palate.
