WINEGROWING
Grown with a focus on sustainability. These grapes are farmed on alluvial soils mixed with larger volcanic strata. A properly managed, umbrella like canopy allows for just the right air flow and dappled sunlight onto the clusters to achieve maximum quality. The soils of the vineyard site enhances the expression of character for each variety and lends to the uniqueness of the wine. Picked at the perfect balance for ripeness and acidity.
WINEMAKING
Spontaneously fermented with native yeast from previously pressed grape skins still containing residual amounts of sugar from the 2020 harvest. We perpetually upcycled our natural byproduct, by steeping the skins in carbon filtered water, adding a small percentage of Rosé wine after fermentation for stability. Fermented dry with a light, refreshing body, and minimal tannins.
