His wife and business partner Bridget Leary grew up in Berkeley where her mom had a café and Bridget helped her open a wine bar. When she met Chris she had no idea anyone was actually making wine in Berkeley. Now she and Chris are making some of the most exciting wines in California in their Berkeley cellar. They have come to define the 'new wave' of California winemaking with wines that pull back on overripe gobs of fruit, alcohol, and instead put freshness and finesse at the forefront.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe “Got Grapes” White 2024 is an excellent example of their freshness and finesse. This vintage is an invigorating blend of 85% Orange Muscat (a cross of Chasselas X Muscat Blanc à Petit Grains), 12% Chardonnay, and 3% Chenin Blanc from Hartwick Vineyard in Lodi, CA. The organically grown grapes see a light footstomping and are gently pressed into a stainless steel tank and fermented on its native yeasts and left to develop and age for 5 months.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis vintage of “Got Grapes” grabbed us immediately with aromas of bright and intense citrus bringing to mind fresh squeezed Grapefruit, Satsuma, Squirt Soda, and Hi-C’s Ecto Cooler.
