Vintage Notes: 2023 was an enchanting vintage, with graceful long autumn days that accommodated the Chenin’s request for a deeper October. The runway was not quite long enough for a Hunter’s Moon, but we will not argue with the results. The verve of this Chenin blanc is so powerful.

Vineyard Notes: 3 acres tucked between Bethel Heights, Mimi Casteel's family Estate, and the Jackson Family’s Zena Crown vineyard that were grafted to Pinot Noir and Chenin Blanc clones from the Hope Well site in 2021.

Farming Notes: Organic and regenerative farming (no till, no irrigation, cover crops, sheep grazing, habitat diversity)

Winemaking Notes: Grapes are whole cluster pressed. They barrel ferment in neutral French oak. No commercial yeasts or bacteria are used.
