Winemaking

Picked in mid to late September - depending on the varietal, the grapes were fermented separately into 5-ton open top fermenters and pumped over multiple times per day to achieve maximum extraction, which was necessary to match the ripe flavors of the 2016 vintage. Ready to drink. Optimal now - 2029.
