Tasting Notes:This is a partially skin-fermented Pecorino from Temecula: a fresh, light, intense, white wine. A surprising wine from the sandy high-desert. MEPPP stands for Modified Emidio Pepe Pecorino Protocol.
Winemaking: The LA River Wine Co was founded by Abe Schoener in 2019. Once a philosophy professor at St John's College, Abe took a sabbatical in 1998, turning his hand to grape growing. He was hooked. While creating wines under his label the Scholium Project, he developed not only a fondness, but an utter dedication to the somewhat underdog vines of California, helping to highlight the lesser-known but magical vineyards that exist in the state, such as the deep-rooted ancient vines of Lodi.
