Folk Machine - White Light - 2022

$26.99

Folk Machine is winemaker Kenny Likitprakong's playful, everyday-price label, and White Light is its field-blend fantasy: five white grapes from five different California regions in one bottle. The 2022 mixes Tocai Friulano from Mendocino, Riesling from Arroyo Seco, Verdelho from Suisun Valley, Albariño from Borden Ranch and Sauvignon Blanc from Potter Valley, all picked early to keep things fresh at just 11.6% ABV. This is a wine for people who want interesting over predictable. Pour it any night you don't want to overthink the pairing.

Salty and citrusy, bone dry, with lemony minerality from the Tocai Friulano and Verdelho. Bright acid and a briny edge, softened by the Riesling and Verdelho's fruit and aromatics.

Oysters, ceviche, or just cold by itself on a hot day.

Folk Machine sources single-varietal lots from five distinct California appellations and blends them into one wine each vintage, picking every lot early (19-21 brix) to keep alcohol low and acidity high.
