You’ve got to love this wine’s name. No, it’s not made by sisters or anyone twisted. Michael Martella, Martella Wines founder and Thomas Fogarty winemaker emeritus, likes to have fun with his wine. For him, that means dreaming up inventive blends, such as this Twisted Sisters white.
What I’m Drinking: Lexington Wine Co. Bordeaux wines
This time I’m drinking two wines from the Santa Cruz Mountains.
Lexington Wine Co. is a new label created by Thomas Fogarty Vineyards owner Tom Fogarty, Jr. and winemaker Nathan Kandler. They wanted to focus this project on Bordeaux varietals, distinct from the pinot noirs and chardonnays they make at Fogarty. For Lexington, the sole vineyard source is the Gist Ranch Estate, perched up high, at 2,400 feet.
