Kiki & Juan is the new Spanish project from John “Juan” House (of Ovum fame) and his business partner Kerin “Kiki” Auth Bembry. They met on a bus in Spain in 2011 and formed an instant connection that is expressed in these joyful wines. These are certified organic crushers that playfully express the terroir of Utiel Requena in Valencia.
Dried apricot, tangerine, and flamed orange drenched in acacia honey. The palate is rich with a medium-to-full-bodied texture. The grip on the mid-palate is intense and followed by a good amount of acidity and a powerful finish, which has hidden layers of salted honey and citrus.
