A unique wine from an obscure grey skinned grape, originally from the Jura.  The grapes are the only planting in CA, from a 40 year old vineyard in the Russian River Valley. Fermented with native yeast on the skins for five days to extract color, flavor and texture, then aged in neutral barrels for 6 months.  Similar to the 2017 and 2018 releases, this vintage is destemmed, allowing a fresh and vibrant expression.  

Our second Pastoral Melange (meaning medley), our name reserved for occasional, unorthodox blends.  The 2019 is delicious, gulpable blend of 50% Carbonic Carignan (aka the 2019 "Wiley") from Mendocino, and 50% Cinsault, from the Windmill Vineyard in Yolo County.

If you have tried and loved Wiley, or any of our Carignans, you will love this. Only 11.4% alc, fresh, vibrant, fun on its own, slightly chilled, or with a variety of simple everyday dishes. Sometimes life just needs to be uncomplicated and fun.

Only 50 cases crafted.

Our first canned wine! and sparkling as a bonus!

Inspired by our baby mini Donkey, Luna, born 4 days before Shelter in Place began. Since then she has been bucking every day around 5 pm, heralding in happy hour - its really bucking cute.  Made from kick ass organic  grapes - 75% Cinsault, and 25% carbonic Carignan.

Enjoy this 10.5% alc, tongue tickling summer treat - it's bright, dry, fresh and zippy!  Drink from the can, with a stainless straw, or pour into a glass and share. Perfect for the beach, picnic, or movie theater!

Declared by Alder Yarrow of Vinography as "One of the Two Canned Wines That Are Worth a Damn", Bucking Luna is described as a "Kick-Ass Organic Southern-Rhone Party-in-a-Can. It’s delicious, and is not only the best sparkling red wine I’ve ever had from California, it’s the best sparkling red I’ve had that isn’t one of the new-wave Lambruscos that are deservedly turning heads among the wine cognoscenti."

Each can is 375 ml, a half bottle.

Due to remaining limited supply, max 6 cans (3 bottles) per order, so we can share the love!
