2022 Contrarian

wine profile

Aromas of white peach, pear and tropical fruit with impressions of white flowers and citrus. Crunchy acidity gains a creamy touch on the mid palate with flavors of guava, honey crisp apple and lemon-lime. Hints of ocean salinity linger on a lively finish.

pairings: Cider braised rabbit, Julia Child’s French Omelet, Seared scallops, Roasted Fennel, Mussels

“Once upon a time, I swore I would never make a white wine—I didn’t have the equipment or the inclination. But after several warm summers in Paso Robles, I came up with the idea for Contrarian, a wine that could go toe-to-toe with any typeof day. The result is a crisp, refreshing white that still delivers the gravitas you expect from any Linne Calodo offering. Life is a contradiction—and so is this wine.”
