Wine Notes: This wine murmurs with fruit-buzzed energy. Each lot fermented independently before blending. This wine is unique year to year with different varieties and winemaking techniques. The Kerner in 2022 fermented and aged in oak puncheons which amps up the mouthfeel and body.
About the Name: Those swirling clouds of starlings you see swooping and diving like a single black spirit over the vineyards are called murmurations. They love grapes as much as we do and can clean the fruit out of a ripe vineyard in an afternoon. We named this full-bodied, dry white wine after these voracious foes in trust that they would be appeased and spare us our harvest.
