TASTING NOTES
Love White is that easy-drinking, high quality white that’s always there when the moment arises. The varieties in our Rhône inspired blend have evolved over the years, but remain rooted in a pleasant complexity, light aromatics and uplifting body. This vintage is made up of mostly Picpoul and Vermentino. To complete the blend we added a little Clairette, Grenache Blanc and Chenin Blanc which added inviting aromatics, pleasant acidity and balance. Another vintage of Love White we can’t get enough of with green melon, fresh kiwi and river rock. It's fresh and crisp and great for poolside sipping.
All white grapes receive a light footstomp on arrival at the winery. It’s an important step for two reasons: We like the complexity the short skin contact gives the wine and, more functionally, treading breaks up the clusters to better fit everything into the press. After a gentle press, the wine goes into mostly neutral barrique with a small fraction into stainless steel tank where it’s fermented and aged. -Winemaker's Notes
