Vinification
The hand-harvested grapes were delivered to the winery in small containers and whole-cluster pressed. The juice was collected and fermented at cool temperatures in neutral French oak and stainless steel. Cultivated yeasts were used to create bright fruit flavors and a rounded palate without the use of malolactic fermentation. The wine was aged sur lie, undergoing weekly battonage, for eight months, at which point it was racked, fined, filtered and bottled.

Tasting Notes
This wine is bright and clear, with a pale lemon yellow core. The aromas are clean and elevated. Hints of papaya, lemon and orange flower rise from the glass. The palate is dry and crisp, full bodied and flavorful. Notes of citrus and cream give way to a rich and complex mouthfeel with a long, soft finish. This wine pairs well with seafood, cream sauces, and salads.
