Jolie Laide Melon de Bourgogne Rodnick Farm Chalone 2020

Located in a dramatic high desert site neighboring Pinnacles National Park, 1800 ft. elevation overlooking Monterey with moderating coastal influence. Situated just beneath an extinct volcano with decomposed granite and limestone soils. Picked early to preserve natural acidity, whole-cluster pressed to concrete eggs where it underwent spontaneous fermentation and subsequent 6-month sur lie elevage. Chalky oyster shell, lemon verbena and citrus blossom with mouthwatering acidity.
