1st years are the best yet most perplexing years in someways. Thankfully the folk here knew their vineyard and helped make picking decisions simple. 100% carbonic maceration. Bunches in tank with a little pied de cuve. 5 litres in a 2000 litre tank. Within 2 days blowing CO2 out of the tasting valve. Warm ferment so we bled off the juice
daily to preserve a dry carbonic ferment. Prevent a secondary
whole bunch juice encapsulated ferment. This was aged separately
but ultimately blended in. Pressed to old french puncheons.
Wine blended and bottled early spring. – Scintilla
