We are excited to share the latest news about our 2022 Head High Skin Contact White Wine! This exceptional wine, crafted in the “Orange Wine” style, has captivated wine reviewer Pierre DuMont. Pierre noted the wine’s unique production process, which involves leaving the grape juice in contact with the skins to extract more flavor and tannin. Pierre praised our wine, highlighting its “unusual and enchanting” qualities. He described its aroma as reminiscent of peaches and oranges, with a palate bursting with melon and citrus fruit flavors. The wine has a good weight and body for a white wine, with a long and intense finish. 

Pairing Suggestion: This wine would pair beautifully with roast chicken as DuMont mentions, making it a delightful addition to your dinner table.
