WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Logan Chardonnay 2022 begins with hand-harvested grapes from high-altitude vineyards. The juice undergoes gentle pressing and clarification. A portion of the juice is intentionally exposed to oxygen before fermentation to stabilize phenols. Fermentation is initiated by natural yeasts, with approximately 47% of the wine fermented and aged in French oak barrels of various sizes and newness, some undergoing malolactic fermentation. The remaining portion is fermented in stainless steel tanks, with a small amount of natural malolactic fermentation for acidity balance. The wine is aged for 7 months in French and Russian oak barrels and concrete tanks, followed by 8 months of aging on its lees.
