Nose
Delicate nose of white peach, limestone, and a touch of thyme create a layered and refreshing palate.
Palate
The bright acidity from the Vermentino provide structure.
Growing Conditions
2023 is the inaugural vintage of Oveja crafted with Vermentino, a variety intentionally planted by Jordan Collins in 2020 for this unique white blend. Vermentino was selected for its bright acidity, which enhances the wines overall profile.
Harvest
Dry-farmed, head trained and certified organic as of 2022.
Winemaking
Fermented for 11 months in 100% concrete vessels, followed by full malolactic fermentation. The use of concrete allowed for a slow, controlled maturation, preserving the wines fresh, mineral driven characteristics.
Food Pairing
An excellent companion for mediterranean dishes, seafood, and herbed poulty.
