TASTING NOTES
The eight acres of grapevines found at Sunhawk Farms were planted twenty years ago by John Schaeffer, a pioneer of natural products and solar energy, who bought the 300-acre property and built an ideal retreat up the mountain next to Duncan Springs Peak.
John’s Demeter-certified vineyard includes a 17th-century inspired lavender labyrinth at the top of the vineyard, a 2,500 tree olive orchard and 4 blocks of mixed (predominantly Rhône) red and white grape varieties planted on volcanic and serpentine soils. John and foreman Manuel Nunez are committed to developing and maintaining a biodynamic and self-sustaining ecosystem where biodiversity and regenerative practices are at the forefront. Vines are treated with herbs, minerals and manure, much of which are sourced from the property itself.
Is it a light red or a rosé? You decide. This coferment red has floral aromatics, a little bit of spice, and tangy red fruit flavors. It's like a grapefruity Hi-C punch. Add a chill, and you have a refreshing little quaffer perfect for the park, rooftop, or any outdoor gathering.
