Features

2012 Chateau d' Abalone Verdejo, Paso Robles 750ml 3-Pack

Green apple, mineral, grapefruit and lemon with good acidity and a very long finish. Stillman Brown always said that Paso whites were best before they were bottled, and this is the proof, six weeks from harvest to bottling.

  • Varietal Composition: 89% Verdejo, 11% Poubelle Blanc**
  • Alcohol: 12.7%
  • pH: 3.55
  • TA: 8.1 g/L
  • Production: 97 cases bottled from 1.6 acres, 2nd year graftover from SB to Verdejo
  • Tank fermented, aged one month in French oak puncheons, bottled

The first Verdejo* in San Luis Obispo County, and possibly the first from any coastal county in the state, this Spanish variety known for dry Rueda whites (thanks to Emile Peynaud, Stillman Brown's first wine instructor) proved to be very low yielding and thick-skinned in his friend’s Paso Robles vineyard, so much so that an acre of vines made less than a hundred cases of wine.

* Not to be confused with Verdelho, Vermentino, Viognier or the V-1 buzz bomb
** A little joke. Sauvignon Blanc (added to keep storage puncheons topped for one month)

Vendor Details

Zeppelin Winery

Founded:

Owner:
Stillman Brown
Location:
New Mexico and San Miguel, CA

Zeppelin Winery is a very small producer of super-premium wines, based on the Central Coast of California. Founded in 2009 by winemaker Stillman Brown of Red Zeppelin Winery and wine veteran Dan Lewis (he's the office guy) they produce tiny lots of Syrah and other misunderstood varietals, with almost invariably insane labels.  Most can only be purchased directly, but once in a while they emerge into the light of day.
