Tasting Notes

Lightly golden in color with a fine bubble. Aromatic on the nose, with lifted notes of lemon drop, sweet grass, and raw white almond with depth from Greek yogurt, flint, and bread. The wine’s texture is round, but silky, and with a dry, chalky finish. Pleasantly dry throughout.

The Vintage

Wet and healthy start to season - Moderate temperatures - Lengthy grape development time

Winemaking

Hand-picked early over 2 days. Pressed fractionated twice and fermented separately in a 50% stainless steel tank and 50% neutral white oak barrels. Second fermentation spurred in bottle. Stayed 18 months on the lees. Riddled, then disgorged April 2026. Resealed with 4.00 g/L dosage. 

Food Pairing

Salty and fried seafood, pork dishes, Thai food with green vegetables or onions, and a vein of bright acidity - with or without spiciness.

The Vineyard

Today, it is called Boxing Rabbit Vineyard and has 30+ acres planted to eleven grape varieties. Current owners Preston and Kelly Alison are reviving these old vines to ensure they can express their maturity through wine.
