Delivering both freshness and richness, the Folded Hills August White is a perfect balance of Grenache Blanc and Viognier. Winemaker Michael Brughelli monitors the vineyard carefully, then selects the optimal time for harvesting the grapes.
After harvest, the fruit is gently whole cluster pressed, and the fermentation happens naturally with ambient yeast. To highlight mouthfeel and a balance between the two varietals, the wine was aged for 5 months in mostly neutral French oak and 12.5% in stainless. The wine sat on gross lees, until being racked to tank for bottling. We are proud to share this 2021 vintage of August White with you.

Tight and linear aromas of tangerine peel, bright white flower and a hint of lanolin show on the nose of this bottling. There's a stone-driven earthiness to the palate, where zippy lime flesh and blossom meet with a chalky cement tone.

The 2021 White Wine August shows just how compelling this vintage is for whites. Bright and focused, with terrific depth, the 2021 has so much to offer. The blend is Grenache Blanc and Viognier, co-fermented, an approach that works so well here. Orchard fruit, lime and jasmine linger.
