Wine Facts
Winemaker Notes
The grapes come from a 29.7 acre southeast facing estate vineyard with vines more than 50 years old (and some as old as 100 years). Harvesting of this wine is conducted manually, in whole bunches and the grapes are de-stemmed before pressing. Semi-carbonic maceration lasts between 10 to 12 days, with malolactic fermentation taking place in temperature- controlled stainless steel vats (between 78.8 – 82.4 F).
Serving Hints
This wine pairs best with lamb, grilled chicken, burgers, mushroom risotto and creamy cheeses.
