Description
This Malvasia Bianca, planted 3 decades ago in sandy quartz soils atop Monterey shale on a bench 200m above the ocean (yet within reach of the cooling afternoon fog of Monterey Bay,) produces a subtly refreshing, soft, and fragrant wine. We harvested in the middle of the night, and waited ‘til lunch the following day to press. It was bottled as it finished fermentation, allowing the fine lees to contribute richness and length to snappy floral flashes of frangipani, honeysuckle and nectarine blossom. Unfiltered. Snap some up, chill, and chill. -Alex Krause and John Locke, founders
