Hi all!
Another bay area summer, another year of Deux Punx releases. This year's summer weather has proven to be a bit more of what Californians like (sun) mixed with what San Franciscans like to wear black to (cool and foggy). Nothing to write home about, nothing to complain about. Up in the vineyards it's been picture book perfect, which means we're sweating bullets that our love for the brink of failure isn't (yet) returning our calls. While the wines to be sun-up in the vineyards we've got some fun new, just-released wines to drink to life, love, happiness and every shoe string punk rock band that has ever recorded vocals on four track in their group house bathroom.
Did I mention we've got wines? This year's releases come in threes. First we've got a flower patch meets the tropics Viognier who's guava base speaks to another, less explored side of the Sacramento Delta. Next we've got a Lake County grenache that sets educated palates back on their heals - this is tart strawberry jam meets raspberry tea and takes a new angle on what California Grenache can be. Last, but in no way least, we've got this year's Pinot from the lost woods of Humboldt. Think tart pie cherry, pumpkin spice and forest floor and you've got this wine in mind. These are all natural wines with as little intervention by our meddling hands as possible - this means native yeasts, neutral oak, minimal SO2 and just letting these wines steer their own course. We've fallen for all three of these wines and we hope you do too!
Cheers!
Dan and Aaron
