Winery review: The philosophy behind Lo-Fi (just like music production) isn’t to create wine that is too polished or perfect, but rather that which embraces a more natural, raw expression. For winemakers Michael Roth and Craig Winchester, less is more: neutral barrels, native yeasts, little to no sulfur additions, and no acid adjustments. The Chardonnay is aged in 6-year old barrels, then racked and matured in concrete eggs for 6 months. The wine has a leesy texture and crisp snappiness, accompanied by flavors of ripe peach, banana, and white flowers.
My review: Again, doing these one week late but just counting them as this week's review. This one sounds fun however it was not. Smelled like grass that had just been doused with pee. The taste was grassy and bitter, it was like they had fruit in the wine then just removed it. Wouldn't drink again.
I did not have this with food.
