Description
The fruit was handpicked then carefully sorted upon arrival at the winery. The wine underwent both native and inoculated fermentation and was fermented in both open and closed top tanks. The wine was pressed, allowed to settle overnight and racked to barrels. Native secondary fermentation occurred in the barrel. The wine spent 11 months in French oak (20% new) and was bottled unfined.
