- MOQ 5 Bottles
- Blend Composition: Cartology is renowned for its blend of Chenin Blanc and Semillon. The 2023 vintage continues this tradition, combining these varietals to create a complex and harmonious wine. The exact proportions can vary from year to year, but the goal is always to balance the vibrant freshness of Chenin Blanc with the rich, textured qualities of Semillon.
- Old Vines: The grapes used in Cartology often come from old, low-yielding vineyards. These vines are known for producing grapes with greater concentration and depth of flavor, which significantly contributes to the wine's complexity and character.
- Terroir Expression: The wine is crafted to highlight the unique terroirs of the vineyards. Alheit Vineyards sources fruit from a variety of sites, each contributing different characteristics to the final blend. The 2023 vintage reflects the specific conditions of that year, capturing the essence of the terroir.
- Winemaking Techniques: Chris Alheit uses a combination of traditional and innovative winemaking techniques. The 2023 Cartology is likely to have undergone natural fermentation, with aging in old oak barrels to enhance its texture and complexity without imparting excessive oak flavors.
- Tasting Notes: While the specific tasting notes for the 2023 vintage will be detailed in professional reviews and the winery's own notes, Cartology typically features flavors of ripe stone fruits, citrus, and a hint of honey. The wine often exhibits a lovely balance of acidity and richness, with a mineral or saline quality that reflects its terroir.
- Aging Potential: Cartology is known for its ability to age gracefully. The 2023 vintage, like its predecessors, should have good aging potential, with its components evolving over time to develop additional complexity and depth.
