Notes:

Issamu Kamide and Andrew Lardy, two high school friends seeking new directions in fermentation. They live in LA and make wines from all over California. They ride the wavelength from low- intervention to high-innovation, making collaborative ideas come to life in funky new ways.

Montepulciano was fermented whole cluster in 1.5 ton fermentors, aged 12 months in neutral French oak; Petite Sirah was destemmed and fermented in stainless steel, aged 12 months in neutral French oak. Pair with anything red sauce!
