Description: All of the Pinot Grigio was picked by hand and pressed whole cluster. The juice was settled for 24 hours before being racked and taken directly to French Oak barrels. Native fermentation occurred after 7 days. On average the Pinot Grigio fermented 27 days. The wine was stirred every 2 weeks to encourage malolactic fermentation. After 7 months in barrel the wine was blended and bottled in April.
