Description
Once at the winery, the grapes were de-stemmed, gently pressed and cold soaked for several days prior to fermentation. We used both open top fermenters, which provide more intense color and soften tannins, as well as stainless steel, to protect Pinot Noir’s delicate fruit nuances. After fermentation, the wine is aged for six to eight months in French oak. Fragrant cherry, cranberry and red raspberry aromas carry through to the palate, framed on the palate by notes of cloves, caramel and spice, with a crisp yet silky finish.
