The image on the label is a still from this video. I highly recommend you watch it because it's magical and moving. It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the wine though. 

The wine is 100% Chenin Blanc from a vineyard near the Sacramento River in Clarksburg. The farmer is a 19 year old who inherited the vineyard and used his passion for organics to convert it. 2022 was the first year of organic farming for it and it was a little rough. At first this wine seemed like it was going to have to be trashed because of the amoutn of reduction, but it pulled through and now is more like noble reduction than anything else. It's lean and mineral driven richness makes it a great food time. Finishes with a hint of buttery popcorn.
