Skin Contact Wine Can, Benjamin Taillandier - NV

200 mL
Item # 52476

A can of orange wine that is dry and accessible. Made from the local grape, Muscat Blanc à Petit Grain. A skin contact wine yet very drinkable and pleasing on the palate. Pair with fried chicken. After finishing winemaking school, Benjamin Taillandier spent some time working in a conventional winery. In 2004, he met natural winemaker Jean-Baptiste Senat and began working with him in his cellar. By then, he knew that he wanted to make his wine with a similar philosophy.

Staff Pick Notes

Benjamin Taillandier took a risk by jumping into the natural wine world, and I'm thankful he did! After branching out from conventional winemaking in 2004, he now has 16 Hectares of biodynamic and organic land that he farms by hand to create his preferred style of lighter, fresher wines. To those still hesitant about wine in a can, allow this skin-contact Muscat Petit Grain to change your mind. With beautiful ginger and floral aromatics, mouthwateringly dry texture, and a long citrus finish, this tiny can is begging to be thrown in the bag for the park or the beach. Enjoy with a spicy chicken sandwich and pour into a glass - you'd never know this stellar orange wine came from a can (but also, who needs a glass?)
