Ansonica is a Sicilian grape with a bronze cast and leathery skin, sturdy enough to handle heat and loaded with the phenolics that make skin contact worth doing, which is what Kevin McCarthy is chasing here, the seductive texture of the world's better skin-fermented whites. Friulano gains from the same treatment. Each variety fermented on its own and spent sixteen days on skins, then went to tank via a gentle drain and press. Once settled, the wine was racked to seasoned French oak in both large and small format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmber-tinged, with dried apricot, orange peel, almond skin and a firm, tea-like tannin that runs long. Serve it cool but not cold, 12 to 14 degrees, with roast pork, chickpeas and cumin, or a hard washed-rind cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
