About This Wine


Corolla Calyx

Vermentino

The Corolla Calyx Vermentino is aptly named. A corolla is the whorl of petals that make up the outside of a flower, and the calyx is the outermost part of that protects the buds as they grow. What does this have to do with wine? Well, this Vermentino is full of tropical flower flavors. Young and zippy it features beautiful white flower notes that play off of citrus and guava. We think this is a wine that should definitively be enjoyed young so that you can savor the fruit flavors and zippy acidity. Enjoy on its own or with light seafood. Judges love it too! It took home a Silver medal from the 2020 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition and at the 2019 Sommelier Challenge.

Wine Region


Lodi

The jewel of the Central Valley, Lodi lies just east of the California Delta in an area of varied terroir. Winemakers here can extract different grape variety expressions from each plot of land. Zinfandel is common here, making deeply fruity and tantalizingly smoky wines, often from old vines. But the deep loamy soils and balmy Mediterranean climate, with its warm days and cool nights, help keep Lodi's grape varieties and winemaking styles impressively diverse. Alongside the ubiquitous Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot and Viognier also thrive. Lodi is a melting pot of different grape varieties and winemaking techniques, all of which make it a rewarding region to explore.
