Bardos, "Saint Cabora" NV [500mL]

Aged organically farmed Gravenstein cider poured over the freshly pressed pomace of dry-farmed, old-vine Zinfandel from Bucklin Old Hill Ranch and Bedrock Wine Co., to create an inimitable sparkling rosé-inflected apple/grape elixir. Unfined, unfiltered, no additional SO2.

From the producer on the name of the cuvée:
"The figure of Saint Cabora came to us because, historically, she was a healer who drew from her inner agency to help and heal others. She traveled between Mexico and the US. The relationship between the two countries, (being that California was so recently Mexico) has always been a powerful metaphor for us at Bardos. Throughout Northern Mexico and later California, she became known colloquially as “The Mexican Joan of Arc”.

From testimonies, Saint Cabora was a healer insofar as she was like a great mirror to the part in those who she helped that harbored their own restoration."
