By Guthrie Family Wines
WHITE | EASY BREEZY
This wine wasn't planned - and, like some of the best things in life, it turned out to be one heck of a good idea in the end!
WHAT WE TASTE
White peaches, summer corn + lanolin
PERFECT PAIRING
Chicken piccata, white-based pizza, a real good dhal
TEMP CHECK
Serve from the fridge, but you can leave it on the table while you enjoy (it'll be gone before it has time to warm up)
ABOUT GUTHRIE FAMILY WINES
Blair and Caroline Guthrie are making honest wines, farmed responsibly. Their baby side project (only 600 cases a year) is filled with so much love – their wines are comforting and light-hearted as a Sunday morning dance party in your bathrobe. Beneath that, they are strongly focused on preserving and encouraging the good in the world – environmentally, ethically and everything in between.
THE GOOD THINGS THEY DO
They seek out some of the best in the biz farmers in the region, who are doing things the right way in the vineyards. Eschewing capsules entirely, they’re saving waste on that front too. They also support cool young artists they trawl up on the interweb for their labels.
OUR FAVE THING ABOUT THIS WINE
Sometimes the realities of being a teeny-tiny producer kick in & you run out of space in the cellar during harvest. Luckily for us, this resulted in one of the yummiest things we've sipped all year!
