Winemaking
This small batch of fruit was fermented in a small open fermenter, and aggressively hand punched down during the fermentation. We introduced a yeast native to the Rhone region of France, that is known to enhance the varietal charateristics of Grenache. What can sometimes be tough to extract, we were able to get a complex wine with medium body and great varietal characteristics. The wine was aged only 11 months in barrel to preserve its freshness.
