Metal House 'Come Here My Love' Blanc de Blancs Pét-Nat 2019

Kimberly, a painter, and Matt, a builder, began Metal House on an urge to do good by the land, and have worked to restore abandoned ancient orchards in the Hudson Valley to their former fruit-bearing glory days. Employing bio-intensive farming techniques, which focuses on the use of naturally made fertilizers and pest management techniques (akin to biodynamics), they focus their work around the idea of sano, which they state on their website, "means healthy and sound, as in the food we eat, the environment we surround ourselves in, and the ideas we support. Complete. This is the orchard from which we want to harvest apples… An orchard free from unnecessary herbicides, fungicides, pesticides and chemical fertilizers allows organisms to work with the trees, improving the flavor and characteristics of the fruit. Beneficial flora have the opportunity to thrive." ‘Come Here My Love’ is the first wine from Metal House, made from 100% Long Island chardonnay. It is fermented in stainless steel and bottled methodé ancestrale. This delivers a delightful mouthful of Golden Delicious and Granny Smith apples, notes of exotic yuzu, and an elegant chalky finish. Organically grown, low-intervention/natural wine, vegan.
