Chalk Talk
Over the years, we have made big changes in our sustainability practices to help improve and protect our unique hilltop environment here at Calcareous. Earth Day and every day, we are dedicated to nurturing this land for generations and vintages to come.
Our wet and cold winter has continued here at Calcareous, and it is a most welcome development for our vineyard.
One of the great intrigues of wine is experiencing how it develops with age. The generally held assumption is that wine requires time and "improves" with age.
Some of my favorite quotes about wine making in America go back to almost the very beggining. In Andrew S Fuller's 1867 classic "The Grape Culturist", an early treastie on grape growing in America, his disdain for wine is barely veilded.
The final installment of me tasting the Summer 2021 club wines. This time, the 2019 Devil's Canyon Syrah that I'm a bit too excited about. As you can readily tell, I don't really plan these out or have any idea about what I'm going to say.
For our series on the Summer 2021 Calcareous Club Wines, I go over the 2019 Tres Violet. This blend has evolved quite a bit over the best few years as a conscious decision to make our Red Rhone wines be true individuals.
