Dirty & Rowdy
Skin Fermented Antle Vineyard Melon
Decant several hours. Room temp. Nice accompaniment to evening potluck. A fun one.

Jun 18th, 2016Once I stopped wanting this to be Muscadet (much lower acidity) or Ramato Pinot Gris (not nearly the tannin/phenolic structure) I really enjoyed this. It's a much quieter and more nuanced 'orange' wine, rewarding close attention and time taken. Lots of development over 3 days, and I'm curious where this is in another year or two. Thanks @Hardy Wallace !

Jun 16th, 2016Fun and interesting. Flavors are quite muted. Best characteristics came out with a roasted red pepper and walnut purée with some heat from cayenne. Maybe for Indian or Thai next time- the acidity is not particularly strong either.

Oct 18th, 2017Stunningly good. Starts off literally like cantaloupe. Smells more like honeydew. Then the acid cuts through everything. But immediately following you get tannins leading to a super dry finish. Love it
