2021 Picpoul Blanc ~ Alta Loma Vineyard

Dry, bright, lemon-y and aromatic. This playful, light-bodied wine is not shy or simple, and so easy to drink. The palate is mineral and a positively mouthwatering laser beam of acidity.

Alta Loma Vineyard is a spectacular growing site in the Texas High Plains, owned and farmed by the Burran and Floyd families. Established in 2016 with fewer than 10 acres of Syrah and Sangiovese, they have since planted two more varieties that have proven sustainability in the region. Their sandy loam soil is well-drained, suited to the hardy varieties they've selected to plant. 

Elevation: 3,200 ft. Soil: Amarillo fine sandy loam. Age of vines: 5 years.
