2022 Midnight Moon Dance
Made from our Traminette grapes, we wanted to create a fun wine that would be perfect to use for celebrations but can also be enjoyed just because it's today. Effervescent more than bubbly, the floral characteristics of the Traminette grape give this wine a wonderful nose and keeps this completely dry wine from feeling "to dry". We have used this wine as the base for mimosa's and for white wine sangria's. We have also paired this wine with charcuterie plates, dark chocolate covered strawberry or cranberry, and seafood alfredo.
Look: A medium gold color
Aroma: Lightly floral
Taste: Light citrus and lemon
These grapes were hand harvested and sorted in the field to remove unripe fruit and any foreign materials that could possibly affect the wine. In the winery we whole cluster press the grapes, then move the juice into stainless steel tanks so that we can control the temperatures to about 50° F. After letting the wines settle we began cold fermentation which lasted for about 30 days. Prior to bottling we added carbonation to the wine up to about 32 psi.

The light carbonation in this wine keeps it feeling light on the palate. Perfect for sipping on the patio on a hot afternoon, it can also be the life of the party by adding a little cranberry or mango juice. We have paired this with fish tacos, salads, and weekend brunches.
