Notes on the Wine
Pale yellow, with aromas of lemon blossom, Bartlett pear, a touch of banana Runts and a hint of reduction. The aromatics are echoed on the palate, with the addition of white rose and the smallest hint of dried tea. With ripping acid, it finishes juicy and cleanses the palate.
Notes on the Producer
We are joseph-jibril and we love wine. We believe that the craft of winemaking is inherently personal, so we put our middle names on it (because Bobby Jaam Wines doesn’t have the same ring to it). Our journey started with conversations in a parking lot and became a reality with lots of help and hard work. After years in the cellar making wines for others, we decided to take a leap of faith and start our own project. Winemaking is an encapsulation of a moment in time. Its energy changes throughout its lifecycle, and perception of it is subjective.
We make crushable wine for all to enjoy. We want our wines to be both fun and serious. . . approachable and interesting, delicious and thought-provoking, all while being clean and sound.
We make minimal intervention wine and focus on providing the necessary conditions for the optimal expression of the vineyard’s fruit. Sometimes the result is opulent, silky, and coating. Other times it is light, floral, and expressive — we never want to stand in the way of that self-actualization.
We want to recognize the hard work involved in all facets of wine production. It is never just the winemakers–we have support from vineyard workers, cellar interns, truck drivers, growers, friends and family who all work insanely hard to help us encapsulate this ‘moment in time’.
