Stella Crinita Omaggio Viognier 2020
This PetNat is all hand harvested Viognier from the Demeter certified biodynamic estate vineyard in the Vista Flores region of the Uco Valley. The wine is made in the ancestral method finishing fermentation in the bottle with 9 months on the lees. The fruit driven nose has notes of white flowers, ripe peaches, chamomile, and toasted brioche. Bright, fresh, and crisp on the palate with apple, lychee, and lemon notes on the palate. A summer day in a bottle.
Stella Crinita Petit Verdot 2019
This hand harvested, single vineyard wine is 100% Petit Verdot from the Demeter certified biodynamic estate vineyard in the Vista Flores region of the Uco Valley. Notes of plums and blackberries soaked in vanilla beans and baking spices on the nose. A plush texture of ripe figs with macerated cherries and sandalwood mixed with lavender and nag champa dominate the palate. The wine finishes with some serious grip from both grape tannin and a little time in oak and concentrated leather like dark mixed berry fruit roll up.
These wines are rare, low production varieties.
