October 2022 | 6 Bottle Club
Welcome to the September 6 Bottle Club from MYSA Natural Wine!
A note from our founder:
This month we have fun seasonal bottles! We've been waiting to work with Subject to Change for awhile and this Sauv Blanc from them is killer! We're getting all the Halloween vibes from Renegado, and fall vibes from Breaking Bread. Balancing out the rest we have medium bodied reds for all the fall fare you want to eat as well as a lighter white and a fall rosé to lighten the group and give you lots of great options!

About Vina Laurent
We seek to do what we like, express our passion, make wines with soul, with their own identity, we do not seek to be pretentious in it, it is simply to seek and interpret what nature gives us. That is why our wines are different each year , each year the imprint that nature wanted to leave us is impregnated and therefore, as a result, what matters most to us is sharing our wines. -Laurent Wines

About Folias de Baco
Tiago Sampaio is the innovative young winemaker of Folias de Baco, a project started in 2007 that one could say was spearheaded in his childhood piggybacking on his grandfather through the farms and vineyards, always curious and plucky, willing to experiment at every step of the way. Tiago is essentially bridging the traditions of his homeland with learned modern aesthetics, creating field blends of both red, white and mixed from indigenous varietals planted some 80 years ago, while carefully attending to his new fixation of Pinot Noir vines that he makes both red and rosé. Tiago has set his sights higher, pushing the boundaries of his curiosity and what some might not expect out of such a traditional region. - Savio Soares Selections

About Post & Vine
“Testa Vineyard is located in Calpella, California in the Redwood Valley of Mendocino County. This beautiful ranch was founded in 1912 and is being farmed by the 4th and 5th generation of the Testa (Martinson) family. The head trained vines are planted on rolling hills in rocky, red, well drained soils composed of sandy and pebbly loam. The Carignane, Petite Sirah, Zinfandel, and Grenache for Post & Vine were planted in the 1950’s and are dry farmed resulting in small clusters of concentrated, complex fruit. -Post & Vine

About Schlossmulenhof
The Schloss Mühlenhof property is a large estate (nearly 20ha) spread across the slopes above Kettenheim, 3km south of Alzey. Now in the hands of Gabriele, Nicolas, and Walter Michel, the farm operates ‘organically’ but not by any legal standard. They follow what they call, ‘ecologically healthy’ farming practices, with the intent on capturing the pure expression of the Rheinhessen style. -Savio Soares Selections
