Today we're featuring the 2020 Field Blend Piquette from Old Westminster Winery. While Piquette is not technically a wine, it’s made by adding water to grape pomace (the leftover skins, seeds, and stems of the fruit) and fermenting what’s left of the sugars. Piquette can be made from countless numbers of grapes that winemakers are left with after bottling their traditional wines. Think, reuse and recycle leftover biproducts of winemaking. We love it because it's low in alcohol content (typically between 5-9% ABV) and has a zippy acidity perfect for summer day drinking.
