We love meeting other creative makers expanding the boundaries of modern wine. Our friends at Oddish Wine/Lost Cause Meadery are just such folks.
The beauty of our shared genre is the potential for creative expression. Each producer has their own unique style, and no two are alike. Recently, we had a chance to try some of their bottles. The overlap and contrast in style made for a happy adventure behind the bar. Our favorite duet was this:
