2024 Populis Macerated White

Shaunt Oungoulian and Diego Roig produce wine under two labels, Populis and Les Lunes Wine. With Populis, they purchase grapes from historic vineyards and multi-generational growers from Mendocino County. These wines are fresh, lively, fruit forward, and made in a playful style. In addition to making wine, they farm and manage over 8 hectares of vineyards in Sonoma and Napa and are committed 100% to organic farming and restoring and preserving older and historic vineyards in those counties. The winemaking is very low intervention.

This vibrant orange wine is a blend of several white grape varieties, sourced from historic vineyards in Mendocino County, California. The maceration periods range from five days to two weeks, resulting in a vibrant wine with layers of orchard fruit flavors like apple, pear and quince, and a floral note from the Orange Muscat. Juicy and fresh, with light body and low ABV.
