Ultraviolet is a label made by winemaker Samantha Sheehan, shaped by the California climate she grew up in. The house aims for fruit-forward wines made with organically farmed grapes and a small amount of sulfur.
- Winemaker: Samantha Sheehan
- Farming: Practicing Organic
- Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
- Terroir: Manchester Ridge vineyard on Mendocino Ridge, at about 2,000 feet above Anderson Valley and roughly 400 feet above the fog line. The longer hang time and cool, steady temperatures keep the fruit’s acidity.
- Vinification: The finished base wine is added to stainless-steel pressurized tanks and inoculated for secondary fermentation. The sparkling fermentation takes six weeks to complete, charmat method, at 48°F. The wine is then aged on the lees in tank for eight weeks before bottling.
- Tasting Notes: Refreshing, zesty, and easy to drink.
- Food Pairings: Fried chicken or fish and chips, where the acidity cuts the fried coating. Charcuterie and soft cheeses. Fresh strawberries or a berry dessert.
