Four 12-Bottle Cases | Sold By The Case | $800 Starting Bid
Vineyard:
Pelos Sandberg Vineyard, Eola Amity Hills with clones of Pommard, Wädenswil and 777. We have been working with the Pelos Sandberg Vineyard since 2010 and it has consistently produced approachable and delicious Pinot Noir that is fruit forward, with soft tannins and balanced acidity.
Wine Notes:
Usually picked first thing in the morning, cold fruit is put into fermenters and allowed to slowly warm and ferment with whatever yeast blows in the door. Once fermentation is complete the contents of the fermenter are put into a basket press and the new wine goes directly to barrel. Wine completes malolactic fermentation and stays in barrel for 10-11 months. The wine is racked, blended and bottled just before the next vintage.
Aging:
Ferments are uninoculated, about 20% new barrels are used, bottled without fining or filtration leaving the vitality of the wine intact. Balance is of utmost importance.
Release Date:
November 2022
