Vineyard: Carefully selected vineyards in the Carneros region.
Viticulture: All the grapes are hand picked at night or in the early mornging to keep the fruit at optimal temperatures
Vinification: The fruit is all de-stemmed into bins and placed into open top fermenters. The fruit is cold soaked 3 days prior to initiating fermentation. Once fermentation begins each tank is punched down 2 to 3 times per day to maintain consistent contact between the must and pommace throughout fermentation. Once the wine is fermented dry it is racked to barrels for completion of malolactic fermentation.
Aging: The wine is aged in 100% French oak of which 20% is new.
