Buddy/Buddy Butterfly Kisses Chenin Blanc 2022
100% Chenin Blanc
Wilson Vineyard - Woods Ranch in Clarksburg, CA
Prior to pressing the grapes were gently foot tread. After pressing, they were allowed time to settle in the tank overnight before racking to neutral french oak to ferment in barrel. 8 months in barrel before bottling. Spontaneously fermented, unfined, unfiltered.
Fun fact, in 2021 Chenin Blanc was the first all grape wine that I made following my first vintage of solely apple, pear and grape co-ferments.It remains very special to me in the lineup with notes of pear, green apple, brioche with a kiss of salty/savory.
