The winemakers story

Happy new week!
Let’s us intro you to Sand Point from Lodi Cali.
#
and Pairing
Bright tropical fruit and rich, toasty oak notes highlight wine. Layered within these straightforward aromas and flavors are hints of bright, crisp apple notes, balanced by a vanilla character. With vibrancy and richness, this is an approachable wine that is easy to enjoy.
# The vineyard charge with crafting this wine is sustainably certified and are only a few short miles from the ranch where Sand Point lies, in the heart of the Lodi Appellation. It’s Mediterranean climate and its sandy soil provide the perfect conditions for quality wines.

Biodynamic orange wine made in beeswax-lined amphora in a winery without electricity, really throwing it back to the old school days. Resinous, waxy and funky Loureiro with lots of smoke and spicy olive oil.

Despite its recent surge in popularity, Pétillant Naturel wines are far from a new fad. This sparkler, dates back pre-Champagne, where the wine is bottled prior to fully completing its first fermentation, allowing carbon dioxide to be produced in the enclosed bottle by the natural sugars found in the grapes.
Only, it isn’t actually Pétillant Naturel this time. While the method of production is exactly the same, the wine ended up with more bubbles, and therefore is classed as a Méthode Ancestrale instead. But we’ve got used to saying Pet Nat, so we’ll stick to that name for now.
Every vintage, winemaker Corlea Fourie designs the label herself, and so far she has featured the fields of fynbos in which the vineyards find themselves. But this time, Corlea chose to feature Natasha Williams the winemaker who made this delicate wine and whose sensitive, intelligent nature shines through in the bottle.

Nose
This wine smells like a soft spring day in the Cape mountains.

Mouth
On the palate, the wine calls to mind honeyed pears with herbal notes and a floral minerality.

Winemaking Notes
We pick and the transport in small crates to our Wellington cellar then destem, press, ferment at cool temperatures, bottle, riddle, disgorge and that’s it. No additions of any kind.

Es Okay Rosé is a thirst-quenching and fruity rosé made from Merlot, Trousseau, Pinot Blanc, and a touch of the Es Okay White. This has quite a bit of fruit to it with peach, cara cara oranges, and a light amaro like bitterness at the edges. The palate is distinctly drinkable with ample fruits and a just there mineral/ bitter orange note on the finish. Merlot and Trousseau are at the core of this blend. Merlot gives the wine its strong color, and the Trousseau leans it out. Fun stuff!

Sourced from 2006 Riesling planting, this wine displays primary fruit character and a compelling freshness. This Riesling showcases the varietal’s uncanny ability to balance vibrant acidity with ripe, fruit flavors. Off-dry, with juicy acidity, and a textured mouthfeel, pair this with all manner of spicy dishes or enjoy on its own.
