Description

The 14th vintage of this orange wine from winemaker Kenny Likitprakong is stunningly complex, yet approachable. Produced from hand-harvested, sustainably grown Chenin blanc (67%), with Viognier (about 27%) and Sauvignon Blanc (13%), the wine spends 4 days on skins before natural yeast fermentation in neutral barrels, and is ultimately bottled unfined and unfiltered, and with very little sulphur (20 ppm). The result is an irresistible sipper that is dry, floral, and fruity, with alluring texture. It’s a rebel, just like it’s namesake. Try this one with fish or light meats, Garroxta and Iberico ham, or Lebanese tabbouleh. Vegan. 

Hobo Wine Company

Hobo Wine Company, run by winemaking couple Kenny Likitprakong and Lynn Wheeler, believes in "unforced winemaking," as they put it. Committed to a value system that extends beyond financial progress, Kenny and Lynn are focused on creating outstanding organic and biodynamic wines with style, verve, and accessible prices. The “Hobo” name refers to Kenny’s winemaking experiences traveling and working place to place. It applies now to the fact that Kenny does not own his own vineyards, but sources fruit from vineyard owners who he has longstanding relationships with around California, some of which he worked with before starting Hobo.
