Artemisia Farm & Vineyard Equinox Gentaine, Virginia, United States

Equinox takes a note from the traditional French Gentiane aperitif. Our gentiane recreates a historically alpine profile with botanicals endemic to the mid-Atlantic. Starting with a base of hybrid grapes, we center the vintage on infusions of sweet potato, shagbark hickory, and yarrow. The result is a gentiane aperitif, tuned to the southern Appalachian landscape.
