Winemaking

Grapes are handpicked and de-stemmed.
Must is pumped to our temperature
controlled stainless steel tanks, and then
inoculated with a wine yeast selected for its
hardiness and alcohol tolerance. Once the
wine has extracted to the desired level of
tannins, the grapes are pressed. Both free run
and press juice combine to enhance the
wine’s structure. The wine is pumped over 4
times daily to optimize bright fruit. Barrel
aged in once used American oak from our
Chardonnay program for 18 months.
