VINIFICATION intensive crop-thinning performed to achieve low yields. hand-harvested on oct.16. all clones co-fermented using a wild yeast. partial whole- cluster fermented in open-top tanks. punched down by hand twice daily. aged for 10-months in 1, 2, and 3-year barrels. bottled without fining or filtration.
SITE a "fringe" hillside site in cool, sparkling wine country. positioned 11 miles from the pacific ocean on a 10%-16% grade facing south by southwest. average of 400 feet in elevation. soil is sandy clay loam and fractured rock. diverse clonal material in the vineyard coupled with extreme coastal climate produces pinot noir with heightened flavor and aroma.
