TASTING NOTES

Inspired by the white wines of the Jura and Savoie regions of the French Alps, this blend of high elevation sites from the Shasta-Cascade regions of the Trinity Alps and Oregon’s Siskiyou Wilderness. Aromas of dried flowers and brush are framed by electric acidity, almond and citrus -- imagine dropping a Ricola (or a shot of Chartreuse) into a margarita and setting off in a canoe. Taste the Alps!  -Yuzu. Elderflower. Preserved Lemon. Ricola
