2019 Vinca Minor Old Vine White - Mendocino, CA (750ml)

Jason Charles worked the vineyards of St. Emilion and then the Sonoma Coast before starting his own label Vinca Minor to “explore the intersection between farmer, winemaker and artist.” A natural wine, Old Vine White is a blend of 70% Chardonnay and 30% Sauvignon Blanc that spends five months in neutral oak and is bottled unfined and unfiltered. California sunshine permeates this wine with intense, ripe pineapple and stone fruit flavors, lemon peel, a hint of tarragon and a crisp finish. Pairs nicely with lobster or shrimp scampi over linguine.
