WINE MAKING PROCESS
The DeLoach Heritage Reserve Pinot Noir 2023 is produced using 100% Pinot Noir grapes. The winemaking process involves fermentation in small batches, a technique chosen to manage extraction and preserve the wine's character. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes aging, with a portion matured in seasoned barrels and the remainder kept in stainless steel. This dual aging approach aims to balance subtle oak influence with the preservation of fresh fruit aromas. DeLoach Vineyards is committed to sustainable practices, with its estate vineyards holding organic and Biodynamic certifications.
