We have been aging these wines patiently since the fall of 2009. They were born as Gemella-- the baking-spice wine from Lost Slough Verdelho; tannic Marcher sur La Lune Verdelho from the hillsides of Bokisch; super-fragrant experimental portions of Riquewihr, also from Lost Slough; muscular Chardonnay from Tenbrink; and finely-chiseled Sauvignon Blanc from an old vine vineyard adjacent to Glos in Napa, Morrow. Each one of the wines was barrel-fermented, and barrel aged without racking, stirring, or SO2. The blend is complex, rich, and deep. It is in complete counterpoise to the freshness of Naucratis, but not as crazy and extreme as Choepheroi.
The name is in honor of Liberation Square in Cairo. This naming is such an insignificant gesture next to the passion, heroism, and wisdom embodied in that square and the movement born from it. But the gesture was irresistible, especially because our main wine from Lost Slough is named for a city in ancient Egypt, not so far from al-Tahrir.
