Production
All of the Pinot Gris was in contact with the
skins for some amount of time. 30% of the grapes were foot treaded, then rested for 24 hours under a veil of
CO2 to keep the oxygen away. We then pressed, and fermented the juice in stainless steel tanks. The remaining 70% of the grapes were hand-sorted and fully destemmed into small fermenters. The fermentation was inoculated our previously built up "Pied de Cuve,” and was managed with a mix of punch-downs, pump overs, and delestage. Once we had the desired extraction, the fermenters were drained and pressed, and the wine was moved to stainless steel tanks to finish fermentation and malolactic. Aged 4 months before bottling.
