The vineyard is almost comically small — just 0.2 hectares of 70-year-old dry-farmed \u003cstrong\u003eCinsault\u003c\/strong\u003e bush vines on a steep slope of Paleozoic granite rich in quartz and mica.

They've simply figured it out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eOne hundred percent whole-cluster fermentation, 55 days of maceration in concrete. That's not a typo — 55 days. The extended maceration is how Parra coaxes structure and tension from a grape that most winemakers treat as light and easy. The result is anything but simple: saline, mineral, and iron-tinged, with chalky tannins and a persistent iodine-laced finish that tastes unmistakably of the coastal granite it came from.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e2021 was a cool, slow-ripening vintage that played perfectly into Parra's hands — high acidity, lean frame, precise and vertical rather than generous and round.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael Skurnik Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46148218618104,"sku":"15696","price":62.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/8001\/0232\/files\/IMG_1738.jpg?v=1757110475"}],"url":"https:\/\/mwcwine.com\/collections\/region-sur.oembed","provider":"Manhattan Wine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
