Regular price $55.00
Unit price per
Extended maceration of Muscat, Chenin Blanc and Roussanne. 28 months in barrel and six months in bottle this is spicy, salty, tannic, with layers of fruit and different expressions of minerality. This complex, mind bending wine will continue to age well.
While still under the Dirty and Rowdy umbrella, with Clothing Optional Wine Company Hardy set out to do something a little differently. While the Dirty and Rowdy wines are made from single varieties, the wines from Clothing Optional are blends from two old vineyards with unique and enviable soils consisting of limestone, granite and volcanic stones.
Clothing Optional is Hardy pushing the boundaries of natural wine. Each wine spends several years in barrel and bottle before release. No So2 is ever added and the wines are alive and like Hardy himself exuberantly expressive.
