2023 Artist Series 'Bokisch Vineyard' Albariño

Albariño from Bokisch Vineyard in Lodi. Direct Press, 14 months elevage in neutral barrel, no racking bottled straight from barrel

The Artist Series wines are single barrel production (22 cases each). We bottled in crown cap bottles because we had some leftover glass from a vermouth project. The bottles are a unique shape and provide an interesting package to showcase this project.

Labels by Phoenix based artist Hector Viramontes aka @_loosebrain_

Flowers share similarities with the human experience in that they are diverse, blossom with beauty and eventually wither and perish. In the artwork produced for the recent collection, Hector Viramontes focuses on creating loose abstractions of various flower shapes -- combined with heavy texture and movement produced by the drip of the acrylic paint. The goal was to paint a bright & vivid piece that lends itself to the various notes found within the wine. Each label corresponds to a different ambience/mood - variety in the same way that wine can be so diverse.
