Culmina Family Estate Unicus 2018

Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFrom their estate grüner veltliner, grown on the high altitude Margaret's Bench, this singular wine was fermented in a combination of concrete egg (35%), concrete amphora (26%), stainless steel (22%), and neutral French oak (17%). The result is a layered white, edgy elbows in youth, but with the structure and intent to merge and age well over the next few years. Lemongrass, lemon peel, white grapefruit, white pepper is coated with a leesy, herbal, citrus wash to a tight, lingering finish. Quite polished, as is the house style. Pour this when you want to stupefy your friends (yup - GruVe from BC).Tasted: 15 May 2019Tasted by: Prices:
