Vineyard Notes: Lyman Vineyards, Amador County. Located off of Fiddletown Rd, outside of Plymouth, this vineyard is farmed by Josh & Julie Lyman, whose family has been farming potatoes in Idaho since the late 1800’s. They farm about 260 acres in the foothills, but have only 6 rows of Vermentino, about 2 acres. Sustainably farmed.
Cellar Notes: We received 4 tons of hand-picked grapes. We destemmed 3 tons of it directly to press & pressed to tank (remaining 1 ton was used for other wines) where it began and finished fermentation. Wine was left in stainless steel to keep its crisp and bright notes.
Tasting Notes: An aromatic joy, bursting with honeydew melon, bright tropical fruits, guava, key lime, gardenia & fennel. The palate reaffirms the melon notes, with a smooth, mid-weight juiciness, pear & hints of jalapeno.
