Ruth Lewandowski Wines, Feints California Red, 2023

NOTES - A blend of all of the Piedmontese varieties found at Fox Hill Vineyard, Feints is quite an unexpected wine. It's a co-fermentation of Dolcetto, Barbera, Nebbiolo and Arneis...yes, three reds and a white (nearly 50% white each year)! Full carbonic maceration keeps things poppy and fresh. This is the complex light red wine go-to and couldn't be more gluggable. Chill it down, drink it, be happy.

After working at Binner in Alsace for several years, Evan Lewandowski moved back to Utah to start making his own wine. Using fruit grown at Fox Hill Vineyards and Testa Vineyards in Mendocino county, Evan begins fermentation in California then transports his fermenting juice in a refrigerated U-Haul to his home in Salt Lake City where he completes the fermentation, aging, and bottling process.
