Tasting Notes
Amrit is a sanskrit word that means "immortality.” In ancient Indian texts, it is synonymous with elixir, ambrosia or a divine nectar. This wine is perhaps a bridge in between the old and new worlds; boundary-breaking and landing somewhere in between a Chablis and a California chardonnay. The glass is brimming with orange blossom, lemon curd, pink pearl apple and flint and the palate is full of vibrant, mouthwatering acidity. 
 
Winemaking
Handpicked on September 28, 2021. Gently whole cluster pressed in a membrane press. After cold settling, the wine was fermented in a combination of new and neutral French oak. 100% malolactic fermentation. Batonnage performed throughout primary and secondary fermentation.
