Tasting Notes

A burst of lime and strawberry jolly rancher hit your nose before watermelon agua fresca and melon rind puff up. Upon enticing you into a sip, the wine is refreshingly dry, medium-bodied, with a weighty texture and lingering rosewater and cherry pop finish.

Winemaking

Fermented 34 days in stainless steel, aged in stainless steel 6 months.

Food Pairing

Dill, crème fraîche, and smoked salmon en croûte.
