Vine to Wine

Hand-picked, a small select block of Pinot Noir was crushed directly to open end barrels. These Puncheons are specially designed for Pinot fermentation providing for earlier integration of oak and unique fermentation dynamics. Whole berries in the ferment lend delicate fruit notes while the additional heat of fermentation brings earthy characters and a richer tannin structure. Pressed and matured 15 months in the same barrels the wine was fermented in. Minimal filtration.
