Let’s get more practical people!!! Shouldn’t we be willing to make behavioral shifts to reduce emissions for the health and longevity of our planet despite nostalgia for tradition??? We can do this. 💪💪💪

Light Of My Life, Fire Of My…
Domaine Moutard-Diligent
Qu`est-ce que c`est Aligoté
Bourgone Aligoté 2021
AOC Bourgone
Sustainable, as hands off as possible, unfiltered, 
Molosmes, Burgundy, France
Winemaker: François Moutard & family

Light hazy gold. Breathing in tangerine rind & a light citrus flair, then honeysuckle & orange blossoms waft through with pears, slate and a shake of salt. The taste is same as the scents and even more expressive and somewhat luscious, but with a touch more citrus(maybe tangelo). It’s clean, fresh and happy easy drinking. Oh and check out the quote from the back of the bottle. "Aligoté, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Ah-lee-go-tay… Sound familiar 😏

Pairs with Cheez-It’s: funky but good

Domaine Moutard-Diligent is built of not only passing from parent to child through the generations. The current generations are also working together with their cousins and each member has a gift from their experiences, educations, and passions. Some contribute their wine/farming knowledge, others have organization & business skills, having a head for numbers, promotion, marketing, branding, and the open mind to travel, learn and spread their brand to the world. As François says on their site, “We play off each other and the advantage of being a family, that is what makes us trust each other, each person in their own skilled role”. What a wonderful family to be a part of where everyone works together to form a smooth running machine filled with creativity, love, and distinguished wine, champagne & spirits. Oh yes, they make an assortment from whisky, marc, gin, etc. and the one that I want to get my hands on is their 100% Champenoise Vodka. So if any of you can point me where I might find one, please, please let me know! 🍸

🔊 Das EFX 🔊
— these glow sticks from Weingut Edelberg are some dead serious glou glou. the product of a pair of brothers, one of which began his career under Riesling royalty at Weingut Keller, these péts from the Nahe region in the south of Germany shine as bright on the palate as they do in that late afternoon summer sunshine. It’z lik dat!

Orbis Moderandi – NZ Pét-Nats from OCD!

The Sauv Blanc pétillant naturel turns all the flavor notes up to 11. It’s about as grapefruit in flavor as you can be without being a Paloma—actually, this is an excellent (& low ABV) beverage for cocktail lovers! It is balanced with the same minerality that the rest of Melissa Saunder’s wines are known for, with a nuanced sweetness and lovely effervescence. ☀️Close your eyes and you can feel the sun on your face and smell the sun baking the clay. You forgot your sunglasses but who cares, you’re drinking wine.☀️

The Red Nat is made from Pinot Noir grapes that macerate on the skins to enhance and enrich the wine’s color. Once opened, it is juicy and lively on the tongue. Immediately our imagination takes us to the smell of fresh, mineral rain hitting an already muddy field. Pour a glass, let it open for 15 minutes, sip the delicious complexity (cherry, blackberry, thyme, coffee, NZ earth, etc.), and repeat.

Both Orbis Moderandi pét-nats are made without SO2 additions. They are produced by Hunter’s Estate, one of the oldest and very best producers in Marlborough, Waihopai Valley.

Thanks @thrillist — Read the article in my link in bio.

“My entire career is built around selling really high-end, fine wine from all over the world, and I am trying to make a boxed wine for those people - for drinkers like me, or aspirational drinkers who just want to put something better in their bodies.”

Repost from @melissamontisaunders

Myth #4 (explained) → it’s not economic for recyclers to recycle glass.

2 reasons why:

1. we are a single-stream recycling system (everything goes in the same bin)
2. glass can contaminate their recycling stream

I encourage you to try some boxed wine, please, because once it’s in the glass - does it even matter?

Don’t open your Pet Nats in the living room! You’ve been warned ⚠️. These wines want to jump out of the bottle!

Red Nat from Orbis Moderandi is 100% Pinot Noir. Sustainably grown in the Waihopai Valley of Marlborough, New Zealand. Natty bubbles. No filter. Fresh Pinot Noir fruit! A little chunky but not funky. Really cool!😎

Saved my favorite pic of our boss lady for the last post of 2021.

@melissamontisaunders in her element, showing her strength (peep those arms 💪🏼), ready to take over any challenge that comes her way, while thinking about the environment and continuing her 3L movement.

This was taken back in November and included in a @wineenthusiast article written by @thepumpernickel

@melissamontisaunders and the Communal team wishes everyone a happy, healthy and sustainable 2022!

Cheers! 🥂 🎉 💥

One of the oldest Cuvée from Moutard family. Classic style from a classic producer. Chardonnay in the blend is rare for the Aubrey and adds balance and freshness. So we suggest you give this one a try, it can easily become your house fave 😜
