WINEMAKING
To create a white wine from Cabernet Franc, we picked a select block ahead of the main red wine harvest to preserve freshness. The grapes were pressed at a low temperature and then fermented using wild yeast for 51 days.
TASTING NOTE
Inviting scents of white currant, orange blossom and hints of lilac are complimented by a richly textured palate. White pepper and star anise linger on the finish.
FOOD PAIRING
Ginger seasoned gyoza stuffed with shrimp, pork and shitake mushrooms
