Inside Out 2020

a Zinfandel from Fair PlayCA
$28 per bottle

Our version of the classic "Beaujolais Nouveau" that we call Inside Out. Inside Out is one of our smaller production wines and tends to sell out every year. Beaujolais Nouveau is the name of a wine made in Beaujolais region of France. This wine is made with a fermentation process called "carbonic maceration" and produces a light, fruity, easy to drink red that is often served slightly chilled. The "carbonic maceration" process was developed over a century ago by locals to celebrate the end of the harvest season. 100% whole cluster fermentation using carbonic maceration in a sealed tank without punch down or pump over.
