WINE MAKING PROCESS
The 2022 X Marks the Spot The Grape Collective Pinot Noir begins with grapes harvested at night to maintain freshness. The fruit is then gently crushed and fermented in stainless steel tanks, a process that helps preserve its vibrant character. Malolactic fermentation occurred naturally, contributing to the wine's texture. After fermentation, the wine rested in stainless steel tanks before being blended and filtered. The use of PET bottles for packaging is a notable aspect, chosen for its environmental benefits.
