WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Underwood Pinot Noir is crafted from 100% Pinot Noir grapes sourced from various Oregon regions. The grapes undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks, a method chosen to maintain the wine's fresh fruit character. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for eight months, with a portion (15%) maturing in new French oak barrels. This aging process is designed to add subtle layers of complexity. The vineyards from which the grapes are sourced are farmed sustainably. Union Wine Company also utilizes innovative packaging, offering the wine in both traditional bottles and cans.
