2021 Not Blue
History can inspire and inform the present. What happens when you allow a wine to be made using only techniques from the past?
This project is the ultimate expression of hand-crafted. Using traditional methods we hand-picked, hand-sorted, hand-plunged, hand-pressed in an antique wooden basket press, hand-bottled and hand-labelled. We went the whole nine yards with our own two hands.
After 30 days fermenting on skins this blend of 58% Riesling and 42% Gewurztraminer is full of rose, orange peel and ginger root on the nose. The skin contact adds texture to the palate and lean acidity runs through the finish. Our focused interpretation of an orange wine.
