A Sunday in August is, as the name implies, a good pairing for a summer day.
Did you the hear the one about the rock star making crazy low-intervention wines with artist-designed labels? You probably haven’t, because the past two vintages from A Sunday in August—the winery founded by Mike Shindler (formerly of cult fave Top Less Gay Love Tekno Party)—have flown off the shelves.
The good news is that he’s increased production this year up to 1,800 cases, which means you have a decent chance of finding his skin-contact pinot gris, a pink-hued biodynamic marvel of juiciness and clarity, or maybe even his crushably fresh organic merlot/cab.
