TASTING NOTES: Aromas of green apple, lemon leaf, grapefruit pith, fresh fennel, and almond. Layers of texture and vibrant acidity on the palate. Mineral driven, savory, sassy, almost salty; great with shellfish. 

VINEYARD: The Bench Vineyard lies in the Clements Hills AVA in the greater Lodi area. While nowhere near the coast, it does benefit from cool ocean winds and sandy soils, as do Italy's best Vermentinos. The resulting wine imparts the minerality and freshness much enjoyed by our Italian counterparts. The vineyard was planted in 2012 and is farmed with biodynamic principles. 

VINIFICATION: Whole-cluster pressed and allowed to settle overnight with a light racking. Native yeast fermentation in stainless steel. After malolactic fermentation, racked and aged for 5 months in stainless steel before bottling. Unfined and unfiltered  - expect some sediment.
