Broc Cellars 'Got Grapes' Cortese 2022

Country: USA

Region: Clarksburg AVA

Type: White Wine

Grape: Cortese

This wine is 100% Cortese, and it's Broc's first time working with this varietal not commonly found outside of Italy. The bright salinity is a special characteristic imparted from the Lost Slough Vineyard in Clarksburg, where rich sandy soil teems with seashells and minerals.  

Whole clusters were foot stomped and then pressed to stainless tank to naturally ferment and age for 5 months. This wine was left unfiltered and unfined.  Notes of fresh pear, spearmint on the nose, and salted green melon on the palate.
