Upside Wines Free Rein White Blend 2014

A phenomenal white wine blend we highly recommend.  Upside is a new line of wines from A.P. Vin proprietor Andrew Vingiello. A mix of 50% Chardonnay and 50% Pinot Gris, this should be your new "house white."90 Points Robert Parker: "A serious value that's made from equal parts Chardonnay and Pinot Gris, the Upside Free Rein (which is made by Andrew Vingiello of AP Vin) has pretty apple, citrus blossom and salty minerality to go with a medium-bodied, clean, crisp and decidedly delicious style on the palate. All co-fermented, with no malolactic fermentation, and aged on lees for five months in stainless steel, it's a no brainer purchase that will be a perfect meal starter over the coming year or so....The young and talented Andrew Vingiello continues to make superb single vineyard Pinot Noirs under his AP Vin label. Described as a "post card" vintage by Andrew, these 2012s showed beautifully from barrel, and were all outstanding from bottle Upside was started on the credo that wine should be fun and approachable, not intimidating. We don’t think you have to be a connoisseur to know what tastes good. Hand-crafted with love right here in San Francisco, Upside is both sustainable and sophisticated. We make wines for every palate and preference, every occasion, or just to toast to the end of a good day.
