Mommenpop Blood Orange California Aperitif

Female Founded. This is very much a California aperitif wine through and through. The organically grown Pinot Noir comes from primarily Sonoma while the Blood Oranges are souced from Ventura. The grape distillate comes from Lock and Union in Napa. This starts out with a lightly pressed Pinot Noir before it is mascerated with the whole crushed citrus fruits for a handful of weeks. The nose shows a deep and dark aroma set with pepper, earth, cardamom, and dark oranges. The palate has a presence to it with pepper, root beer, and dark orange notes. D&M Tasting Notes

Mommenpop BLOOD ORANGE is refreshing, rich, and vibrant. It is citrus-forward and juicy, as though biting straight into a perfectly ripe blood orange. This flavor is peppery and floral, with a subtle warmth. What you might want to drink while you have fresh tomato sauce simmering on the stove and Miles Davis on vinyl. Delicious pre-dinner while snacking on olives, during dinner with your favorite pasta dish, and after dinner with some salt-studded dark chocolate. Winery Notes
