Vinification

The Sauvignon Blanc was harvested on August 17th, 23rd and September 6th, 2022.  Immediately after picking the grapes were whole cluster pressed.  The juice was transferred to stainless steal tanks where the fermentation took place. At the conclusion of fermentation the wine was gently racked to used French Oak barrels where it was aged for 4 months.  No new Oak was used in the vinification of this wine.
After 4 months of aging these wines were racked to tank and blended to be cold stabilized in preparation for bottling.
