PUNCH: Iruai Wnry/Mt.Shasta

A very interesting article in PUNCH by RebeccaGrant:
[PUNCH: IruaiWnry](https://punchdrink.com/articles/iruai-m ... 1idwu7fesm)
on IruaiWnry way North in Calif near MtShasta.
ChadHinds started MethodeSauvage wnry down in Berkeley using purchased grapes. But he was inspired by wines from FrenchAlps/Savoie/Jura to move up to the MtShasta area to relocate hi wnry and plant grapes. He's got Trousseau in the ground & eventually hopes to plant Gringet.
Chad is a natural winemaker, but the few I've tried, though a bit underwhelming, have been interesting, perfectly clean, and no signs of natty character whatsoever.
This is an exciting project and eagerly look forward to trying more of his wines.

I've had two. They were highly recommended by a friend who tends to like weird wines in preference to well-made conventional wines. I didn't care for either one and when I considered which friend had recommended them I wasn't surprised.
