wicked garden

crafted from 20–30-year-old vines on steep terraces in the sausal mountains, this wine undergoes 2–4 days of skin contact before spontaneous fermentation. aged for 10 months in stainless steel, it is bottled unfined and unfiltered. the result is a wine with a complex nose of jasmine, citrus zest, and wet stone, leading to a palate of ripe yellow apples, pears, and a salty minerality. the finish is long and expressive, with a slight bitterness that adds depth.
