Harvested on October 15th and 18th, fermented with indigenous yeast and about 15% whole clusters, this Pinot noir aged for 15 months in 19.05% new French oak, 28.57% one and two year old, and 23.81% neutral. The barrels were racked in April, then again in August when the blend was put together before returning to barrels for another 5 months before bottling.
