Wine Details
Price:
$14.00 per bottle
Description:
Our process with these grapes is to gently press the juice while monitoring pH. Each year, after the free run, we press lightly for two cycles in our new bladder press. When the pH begins to climb, we stop pressing. Although the pommaceis quite wet and could have supplied more juice, we cart it off to our garden! It should produce great potatoes! The juice is then chilled and the settled juice transferred to another tank for cold fermentation which lasts five to six weeks. When the residual sugar reaches about 0.5%, we turn on the chiller to stop the fermentation. At this point, the wine is transferred to neutral oak where it begins to age on its lees, stirred weekly. This wine was bottled in early Spring.
