Winemaker Scott MacFiggen Notes
This is a late ripening grape which gives us a lot of hang time resulting in great for flavor development.
After picking we foot stomp the grapes in the picking bins and leave for 24 hours. This gives the wine more color and greater flavor extraction with the increased skin contact.
The grapes are then pressed directly to barrel and fermented in barrel.
We use about 20% new french oak and the rest neutral oak.
No chemical amendments were made to this wine.
