WINE MAKING PROCESS
This wine undergoes 100% carbonic maceration, a process where whole clusters of Pinot Noir grapes are fermented in a sealed, carbon dioxide-rich environment. This intracellular fermentation extracts vibrant fruit flavors and color while minimizing tannin extraction. The wine is fermented using native yeasts, aged in neutral vessels to preserve its fresh fruit character, and bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulfur additions.
