$27.99
This wine displays lovely aromas of peach, pineapple and beeswax with suptle notes of white tea and vanilla. While the creaminess on the palate helps to balance the acidity, this is a wine that is defined by its acidity, nerve and bright finish. Due to unfiltered bottling this wine might have a slight hazy appearance.

| VIneyard | This wine comes from an organically farmed vineyard located in the South-eastern hills of Ukiah. Planted in the mid-1970s on a gentle slope in Pinole gravelly loam soils, the sites old Chenin Blanc vines yield tiny, beautifully concentrated berries – thus the name Peaberry. |
| Harvest | The 2022 growing season produced an exceptional vintage, cooler weather in the beginning of the season made for a slow start. A warm summer and lighter crop made for a fast and early harvest. We hand picked our Peaberry Chenin Blanc on September 3rd at 21.9 Brix to preserve the high natural acidity. |
| Fermentation | This year’s Peaberry was 100% whole clusters pressed to tank for cold settling. The pressed juice was racked to 14HL French oak cask and new 500 Liter Austrian oak puncheon for fermentation using spontaneous yeast. |
| Cellar Notes | The wine was aged for ten months with complete spontaneous malolactic fermentation in cask and puncheon. In summer of 2023 the blend was assembled in tank before bottling in August of 2023 without filtration. |
