K-Or is the most obviously mineral wine in Emmanuel’s lineup. Grapes are harvested early for appellation standards and fermented/aged in unlined concrete squares. Emmanuel paints the K on the label red because he cherished the “bloody” aromas this wine gives off upon opening.
2016 Vintage – “This wine has dusty tannic character. It has blackcurrant flavors that are packed with both fruitiness and balanced acidity. The organic grapes give a pure line of ripe fruits that are going to integrate well with the tannins.” – Wine Enthusiast.
2015 Vintage, 92 Points “Always a dense and concentrated wine, this new vintage also reveals rich fruit, blackberry and plum. Combined with dark tannins and layers of spice and layers of spice from wood aging, it’s a structured wine that finishes with fresh, fruity acidity. Drink from 2018.” – Wine Enthusiast, Editors’ Choice
