The Kristy Vineyard is planted in the fractured sediment of ancient sea beds on a bench west of the Salinas River, exposed to the consistent cooling winds off the Monterey Bay. Kristy is special because Albariño in the vineyard reaches full phenological ripeness at low potential alcohol and natural, bright acidity. Cold fermented in stainless steel for aromatic intensity. Bright, fresh and crisp with notes of lemon curd and tangerine. On the palate it shows elegant texture and bright acidity on the finish. Picked under 22 brix, 2/3 whole cluster pressed, 1/3 destemmed and left on skins for two days. Aged on the lees for four months and then sterile filtered. Pairs with oysters, grilled fish, spicy cuisines.
