Aligoté from Napa Valley? Yes, thanks to Young Inglewood Vineyards. They make such a small amount of this wine – like 20 cases in 2019 – that if you see a bottle, grab it as quick as you can!

And, it’s one of the first grapes to come in every year for harvest. This started coming in last Friday (August 7th)

The above photo is of winemaker Scott Young and Deanna Basham, Young Inglewood’s harvest intern this year, sorting some of the Aligoté grapes.

This photo is a closeup of the Aligoté grapes just picked:

This is another great example of the diversity of the Napa Valley.
