2019 August White
Angela Osborne x Folded Hills Library Wine
93 PTS - WINE ENTHUSIAST
Delivering both freshness and richness, the Folded Hills August White is a perfect balance of Grenache Blanc, Clairette Blanche, and Roussanne. Winemaker Angela Osborne monitors the vineyard carefully and 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 three varietals, the wine was aged for 10 months in neutral French oak and a concrete egg. The wine sat on gross lees until being racked to tank for bottling. We are proud to share this 2019 vintage of August White with you.
Delightful notes of mango and key lime, reminiscent of a tropical pina colada. It has a beautiful floral nose with hints of plumeria, creating an exotic and appealing bouquet.
