Description
These grapes were harvested on September 6th, and 17th at an average of 23.1 brix. The grapes underwent a four-day cold-soak with 1-3 punch downs by hand daily. Once dry, the wine was pressed and put into French oak barrels (20% new) where it stayed for 18 months before being racked and bottled unfiltered in March 2021.
