Vintage notes: the 2010 vintage was a tale of patience. A cool wet spring resulted in later bud break than usual. Careful vine management helped mitigate heat spikes at the beginning of harvest. Once risk of extreme heat passed we opened up the canopies for greater light exposure and air flow through the vines. Warm dry weather through mid-october resulted in timelier ripening than expected at the growing season’s onset. Winemaking notes: the grape clusters were hand-sorted and once de-stemmed the berries were sorted again by hand on the way to tank. After four to five days of pre-fermentation cold maceration in small open-top fermentors the fruit began 100% native yeast fermentation. Two to three weeks later the fruit was gently pressed and moved to barrel where it finished primary and secondary fermentations. The wine continued to age in 80% new french oak – a combination of taransaud and st. Martin barrels – for eighteen months. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered. Tast
