  Retail $25. This wine is made from, essentially, rehydrating the pressed skins from the white (Vermentino and Marsanne) and rosé (Malbec, Tinta Roriz, Counoise, Tannic) grapes. This is the third vintage of this wine, a traditional farmers' fizz that was made by vineyard workers in France shortly after harvest had finished. Light and dry with good red berry and delicious apple notes with bit of yeasty funkiness thrown in. Not a wine for heavy contemplation but rather one to pop on a warm afternoon, while watching the kids run around making fools of themselves without an apparent care in the world.

  Medium copper color. A chalky, spicy nose with lots of red apple peel and sour cherries, with white and red flowers. The palate is zesty and light with fine bubbles and crisp acidity and some sweet red apple and raspberry fruit. Notes of talc and chalk-infused goodness mix with some hay and white pepper. Really fun, crunchy and fresh, a perfect summer quaffer, and I love the precise and clear nature of this wine. This is made using pressed grape skins from white and rose wines (Vermentino, Marsanne and some from their Tannat rose). Their third and best yet.
