Protector Cellars Piquette Can 2020

What does this wine taste like?

Made in centuries-old practice, Piquette involves rehydrating grape pomace (skins/seeds) after red wine has been pressed. The yeast and remaining sugar in the pomace continues to ferment, creating a lower-alcohol "second wine" that still picks up a lot of phenolic flavor compounds. In our version, we add a bit of grape juice before canning, prompting a "can-conditioning" creating a natural, light effervescence and refreshing beverage.
