Winery Review: The philosophy behind Lo-Fi (just like music production) isn't to create wine that is too polished or perfect, but rather that which embraces a more natural, raw expression. For winemakers Michael Roth and Craig Winchester, less is more: neutral barrels, native yeasts, little to no sulfur additions, and no acid adjustments. The Chardonnay is aged in 6-year old barrels, then racked and matured in concrete eggs for 6 months. The wine has a leesy texture and crisp snappiness, accompanied by flavors of ripe peach, banana, and white flowers.
My Review: Light and refreshing (like the first wine) with hints of Granny Smith apples, banana and peach. Notes of oak and a creaminess were also apparent with an acidic taste.
With/without food: I tasted this on its own without food.
