WINEMAKER NOTES: The cool temperatures of the 2022 vintage contributed to wines with beautiful flavor development producing elegant wines with captivating aromatics and character. The wines from this vintage exhibit great acidity and freshness with moderate alcohol. After hand harvesting and carefully pressing the grapes, we fermented a portion of the juice in new French oak barrels while fermenting the remainder in stainless steel tanks.  Following fermentation, we aged the barrels sur lie and employed a traditional batonnage approach for added complexity and layers.  We kept the tank fermented batch free from oxygen to retain the fresh aromatics.  Once the desired mouthfeel was achieved on the barrel portion, we combined them with the tank portion prior to bottling.  The resulting wine is rich and creamy on the palate with vibrant aromas on the nose.
