Description

The high-elevation, alpine vineyards of the Trinity Lakes AVA in California are the perfect place for varieties from the Jura like Savagnin. Organically farmed Savagnin from the Shasta-Trinity Vineyard is direct-pressed and then aged for nine months in neutral French barrels, then bottled unfiltered with just a small amount of SO2. This wine is beautifully rustic, like a fancy ski lodge. Notes of dried herbs and chamomile, lemon rind, bruled pineapple and almonds. Bright and juicy fruit, make way to a crisp and savory finish. A great pairing with melty raclette and spicy radishes! Michelle DeWyngaert
