Winestyr Review

After years of extracting slight orange color for their rose, Halcyon decided to press the skins directly and see what happened. Thankfully, their instinct proved correct yet again and we're left with one of the most unique white wines of the year. It is incredibly bright, herbal yet citrus forward, peppery yet floral. This can fascinate your most seasoned wine professionals or prove to be a go-to patio sipper.

Halcyon Wines

After biding his time at California’s iconic Paso Robles winery, Tablas Creek, the Elwell’s took the domestic wine scene by storm, producing wines from one grape and one grape only: Cabernet Franc. It wasn’t just the wines of France’s Loire Valley that influenced their devotion to the grape but Tyler’s early discovery of what more moderate climates on the West Coast could accomplish with it. In addition to their very drinkable California appellation bottling, they also produce single-vineyard expressions and Blanc of Cabernet Franc that is simply irresistible.

Interesting viscosity, medium bodied, a bit of residual sugar on the end
