Employing the latest technology, but with more than a few concessions to the traditional techniques which have served winemakers for centuries, the goal is to harness the pristine fruit and fashion an individual style of wine that speaks boldly about a superior site. The exclusively estate grown, hand picked fruit is crushed and pressed without spending any time on skins. A small component is transferred to French oak for a course of rich barrel ferments. The majority is treated to controlled fermenters and vinified at low temperatures to a mix of wild and cultured yeasts. Upon completion, batches are held on sedimentery lees for two months to build fine textures and enhance palate weight.
