Lo-Fi Mencia 25

Lo-Fi's Mencía is co-fermented with 10% Arinto from Riverbench Vineyard in Santa Maria Valley — a Spanish grape planted in California's coolest climate by a former sherry importer who changed careers. Dark and savory with pomegranate, violets, purple sage, and peppercorns, it's unlike almost anything else in natural wine. Worth seeking out.
