These incredible values come from Kerin Auth Bembry (Kiki) and John House (Juan), who founded their import company, La Luz, to recognized the cutting edge wines produced on the Iberian peninsula. For the Kiki & Juan project Kerin found a certified organic vineyard in the obscure Utiel Requena region of southeast Spain. They work with local winemaker Luis Miguel Calleja to craft these wines made from dry farmed, organic grapes; wild yeast fermentations with nothing added except a scant amount of sulfur at bottling for stability. They are also vegan friendly.
The Kiki & Juan White wine is produced from 90% Macabeo and 10% Sauvignon Blanc, harvested together and co-fermented. Talk about refreshing, this wine is a delicious combination of fresh Fuji apples and Anjou pears, green melon, candied grapefruit rind and jasmine.
