Pre-release information:
Clusters were harvested manually at first light and transported 7 miles back to the cellar on September 15th, 2017. A decision to hand-sort the beautiful grape clusters, then cold macerate for 5 days and ferment using approximately 70% whole berries intensified savory aromatics and accentuated a rich violet hue to the must.
The result in barrel is a well structured Gamay suitable to drink upon release with a decant, or following a three to five year repose in cellar.
