2023 Osmote “DeChaunac”, Finger Lakes, New York, USA
ABOUT THE WINE
Made from DeChaunac, a French-American hybrid well-suited to the Finger Lakes climate, this wine highlights the variety’s naturally high acidity and vibrant fruit profile. Expect flavors of red berries, pomegranate, and a touch of forest floor, balanced by a refreshing, mineral-tinged backbone.
Osmote embraces minimal-intervention winemaking, allowing the fruit and site to speak clearly. Fermentation is typically carried out with native yeasts, and extraction is kept gentle to preserve the wine’s light structure and aromatic lift. Aging is neutral, avoiding heavy oak influence and maintaining purity and drinkability.
The 2023 vintage is especially bright and approachable, designed to be enjoyed slightly chilled. It pairs beautifully with charcuterie, roasted vegetables, grilled poultry, or picnic fare, making it a versatile and food-friendly red.
