WINE ENTHUSIAST
April Flowers
Ancient garden wines are blossoming.
Floral or "garden" wines have been around for a long time. The first references come from ancient Romans who infused libations with rose petals and violets. China's Han Dynasty introduced chrysanthemum wine to the world, and American colonists experimented with dandelion vino.
Today, innovative producers are re-creating floral wines by fermenting the flowers themselves. Curious? Check these out.--Janelle Lassalle
LAVENDER AND ROSE HIBISCUS WINES
Free Range Flower Winery
This Oakland, California winery has devised a unique method of fermenting flowers. Developed by co-founder and biologist Aaliyah Nitoto, the "florification" process utilizes organic lemons and lavender to create Free Range's flagship L wine, a lavender wine with a soft purple hue. You might expect a deep herbal flavor, but what you get is lightly sweet and crisp, with nice acidity, a bit of effervescence, no tannins and a hint of lavender.
Just debuted this past holiday season, its RoseHybiscus bottling is a playful take on red wine. Made from oranges and locally sourced organic rose and hibiscus flowers, it looks nearly indistiguishable from red wine and, while its tannins are velvety, it has earthy and herbal notes on the palate.
