Tasting Notes
Totally dry, deeply textured, laden with dried herbs and orchard fruit. Full bore, serious stuff thanks to the hot and dry vintage. It might even get better with a few years in bottle.

are a combination of silt loam, clay, and shale.
About the Winemaker
Usonia is dedicated to exploring new ways forward for New York wine. Our name comes from the architect Frank Lloyd Wright, who used "Usonia" to refer to his vision of a fully democratic American landscape, free of Old World conventions. We focus on varieties we believe are appropriate to our cold climate. We strive to make vibrant, honest wines true to the place they come from.
US Natural Wine ships once a week, every Wednesday. All orders should be placed by Tuesday at noon in order to be picked up from our distributors and out on Wednesday's delivery truck.
Shipping cost is 30 bucks a box (up to 12 bottles) so we highly encourage picking up more than 1 bottle for the best value! Remember, all orders over $150 get FREE SHIPPING!
At $30, shipping cost is on par with most wine ecommerce. Ultimately, we eat the cost of shipping more often than not because wine can be damn heavy. We can't thank you enough for your understanding!
