Description
This is as close as I’ve ever come to capturing the soul of those magical early ’90s Bryant Family wines crafted by the legendary Helen Turley. I’ll never claim to be her equal, but her wines left an indelible impression on me, especially the way they danced with ripe blueberry and cherry fruit, wrapped in decadent, seamless textures. That richness… that magic… I’ve chased it for decades. And with this 2023 Melanson, I believe I caught it.
It’s pure magic in a glass.
About the Vineyard
Situated at the tip top of Prichard Hill, the Melanson vineyard is the elegant lady in our portfolio. You would expect wines from the top of a mountain to be masculine, but this vineyard produces wines that showcase blueberries and huckleberry flavors like none other.
The combination of dappled light and a large diurnal temperature swing, creates the perfect environment for long, slow ripening which gives this wine its incredibly polished textures and refinement.
