Alcohol: 13.0 %
Grape(s): 100% Roussanne
Location: Tagabelle Vineyard, Los Olivos District AVA, Santa Barbara County, California, USA
Tasting Notes: Pale straw with green glints. Aromas of white peach, honeysuckle and crushed almond, with a waxy, toasty depth. Fresh and crunchy on the palate, with a textured, gently oily mid-palate and a long, saline finish.
Notes: From the three-acre organic Tagabelle vineyard in Los Olivos, farmed in its entirety by Amevive for the first time in 2025. Whole-cluster pressed, native fermentation, and aged on lees in neutral oak to keep the wine fresh.
Food Pairing: Roast chicken, seared scallops, creamy risottos, soft cheeses and Thai or Indian curries.
Winery Story: Amevive is the project of Topher Brophy and Alice, working organic and biodynamic vineyards across Santa Barbara County. They make small-lot wines of restraint and clarity, favoring lower alcohol, native fermentation and neutral oak.
