{"product_id":"clown-chenin-blanc","title":"Clownfish — Chenin blanc","description":"\u003cp\u003eA still Chenin blanc with an unexpected story. Originally bottled in 2023 as pét nat — but the wine never started secondary fermentation in bottle. Rather than disgorge a flat wine, we let it rest undisturbed for two years on its lees, then decanted to neutral barrel for a final integration. What came out is an unhurried, textured expression of Chenin: bright acidity, gentle salinity, and the weight of patience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Chenin blanc\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Still white — the sibling to Beta (still red).
