Redshift is a tern in astronomy describing the lengthening of a lightwave as it moves away from us and explores the diverse expanse ofthe universe. Its the stretching of light, into longer, redder wavelengths signifying movement, speed, transformation and expansion. Our Redshift Red Carbonic is a study of that transformation. Made using carbonic maceration, a fermentation method where whole clusters of red grapes are sealed in a tank with carbon dioxide, this process triggers fermentation (Re:transformation) inside the grape berries themselves. The resulting wine is light in tannin, intensely aromatic, and bursting with bright, juicy fruit.

- Light on its feet and dialed to a different frequency, Redshift is a fresh, carbonic take on Sangiovese thats as playful as it is expressive. The nose bursts with strawberry, violet, and nostalgic notes of pop rocks and old-school strawberry candy. On the palate,its featherlight and juicy, layered with cherry kirsch, tomato leaf, red apple skin, and a whisper of fresh thyme. Meant to be enjoyed with a chill and a smile, its a natural fit for Italian antipasti, anything salty or fatty, or your favorite pizza preferably enjoyed on a sun-drenched veranda.
