Orange Wine from California
We picked Organic French Colombard, Gewürztraminer, and Albariño from Madera, Paso Robles, Potter Valley, and Lodi.
The whole berries were gently added to tank for a semi-carbonic fermentation for 7 days before being pressed. Fermentation was native with an experimental 10% Zinfandel field-blend coferment.
The skin-contact orange wine was aged sur lie before being racked off the thick lees on a full moon's day. Each bottle was waxed by hand.
Unfined, Native Fermentation and Semi-carbonic. <30 ppm of sulfur added. '23 Monje produced in Healdsburg, Sonoma County, California.
