Made exclusively of Pinot Noir harvested from several parcels, a mix of Oxfordian “caillottes” and Kimmeridgian “marne”. This Rosé is made using the direct press method with the whole berries entering the pressoir. The musts ferment in temperature-controlled cuves (85%) as well as a small percentage in older barrels (15%). The fermentation occurs over three weeks. The wines is bottled in the spring of the following year.
100% from vineyards from McMinnville AVA, some of the oldest and best plantings, consistently producing fruit of outstanding quality. Taking queues from the Champagne region of France, we settled with a cepage of 90% Chardonnay with 10% Pinot Noir.
