Forget what you think you know about Californian wine. Or maybe even about wine in general. This is pioneering, boundary-pushing stuff and it's the inimitable Evan Lewandowski sailing the ship - alongside a crack team. Sourcing high-quality grapes from a number of vineyards in California, the range of wines is eclectic, but each wine has its own character, and a bit of a cult following. Here we have a co-fermentation of red and white Piedmontese varieties from the Fox Hill Vineyard, which is close to the Russian River. Arneis, Dolcetto, Barbera and Nebbiolo, entwined in a carbonic maceration, which spits out this peppy, spicy, juicy, fresh wine that is so drinkable. This particular vintage has a small proportion of fruit from other vineyards, as the 2021 yield was particularly low. Easy breezy cranberry juice and apple skin freshness.
