Donkey & Goat is celebrated for being amongst a handful of pioneers in the Natural Wine community because in 2004 they were unique for their ecological principles driving decisions in both the vineyard and the cellar and ten years later for promoting transparency, being one of the first to list ingredients on their label. Founding winemakers Jared Brandt & Tracey Rogers spent a year with the inimitable Eric Texier in 2002 studying the art of crafting natural wines in the Rhone Valley before co-founding Donkey & Goat in 2004 in San Francisco.
Creating our IF / THEN blends for each vintage is a creative journey that often results in more blending trials than any other wine we make! A true labor of love. We take great pride in our blending muscles and Tracey has preached from her soapbox for two decades about the most powerful tool in her natural wine chest being her ability to blend. Need more texture? How about a splash of that extra barrel of skin ferment Roussanne (Stone Crusher)? Need more acid? Why not taste a 5% addition of that juicy, bright, and delicious Grenache Gris?
Juicy, crunchy, and fresh are the call-outs for this fun and easy-sipping wine. Bright notes of raspberry, blueberry, and boysenberry are complemented by herbaceous and floral hints of violets, lavender, and sage. The palate delivers a burst of berry compote, with a long finish reminiscent of petrichor after the season’s first rain.
