  • Hand harvested in the cool morning hours at 22.5 brix, the grapes were then gently destemmed and transferred to an open top vessel and allowed to undergo a spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts. While fermenting on skins, grapes were punched down twice daily, and pressed off skins after 7 days of skin contact fermentation. Bottled without fining or filtration, with minimal sulfites. Natural sediment will occur.
