WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Yoko Pinot Noir Organic is produced using 100% Pinot Noir grapes cultivated through organic farming methods. The grapes are hand-harvested to ensure quality. Following harvest, the wine undergoes fermentation, with the producer often employing spontaneous fermentation using their own yeasts for their organic wines to highlight the vineyard's origin. The wine is then aged for one year in French oak barrels, which contributes to its development and structure.
