Production notes | Single-vineyard fruit was hand-picked from our Fredonia vineyard, destemmed and macerated prior to the initiation of fermentation, which lasted 14 days. The must was hand punched down to allow maximal color expression while fermented in small open-top tanks prior to pressing. A secondary ML fermentation was conducted post pressing.
