Lumen - 'Hey Ginger Red' - Ginger, Pinot Noir - Santa Barbara County, CA - NV

Notes from the Winery/Importer

We love Pinot! After four successful years making white wine with ginger, we tried it out with a red grape. HG Red is here! 100% Pinot Noir, grown organically, with a hint of ginger root. Just two ingredients!

Notes on the Producer

Hey Ginger was discovered by a happy accident. Lumen Winemaker Lane Tanner discovered the powerful effects of ginger when she left a combination of wine & ginger in her fridge for months. Her winemaking partner, Will Henry, realized they may have stumbled upon a natural antioxidant that could be used in place of sulfites to protect the wine. Will's father, an icon in the industry, had always told his son that whoever found a natural alternative to sulfites would start a wine revolution. Hence Hey Ginger was born, a wine with only two ingredients: organic grapes and fresh ginger root. Viva la revolucion!
