Delta Soup California White Blend
Very cool stuff, and while not commercially viable, it surely caught my attention. Lots going on on the nose and on the layered palate. Highly recommended.

Mar 19th, 2017A one-off Soup blend of co-fermented Grüner Veltliner, Albariño, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Verdelho and then some added Riesling. Refreshing yet complex. Enjoyed with more local artwork.

Nov 19th, 2017Unusual for Abe not to have notes for a wine on his site, but this one has always been blank. I assumed from the name that it was a potpourri of Sacramento River Delta wines and that proved to be correct. A retail site notes that this is a cofermentation of Albariño, Chardonnay, Grüner Veltliner, Pinot Grigio and Verdelho from the Lost Slough Vineyard, then blended with 14% Whole cluster Riesling. Complex nose with a little funk, and acid for days. Interesting wine.
