The wine has a deep orange/gold color due to the skin contact, and an intense nose of white fruit and spice. The palate is fresh and surprisingly tight and long. The Fog Monster Chenin Blanc is, as winemaker Andrea Mullineux puts it, “an inside-out skin fermentation.” Grapes for the 2013 Chenin Blanc were sourced from the own-rooted, dry-farmed Story Vineyard planted in the decomposed granite soils of the Sierra Foothills in Amador County. Fruit is transferred whole cluster into T-Bins with a blanket of dry ice and then covered and given a 2 week carbonic maceration. After 2 weeks the bins were foot trodden and then pressed to concrete egg tanks to complete fermentation and then matured in those same eggs for 12 months. 11.8% ABV. 100 cases produced.
