VINTAGE 2022
Every vintage has its challenges, and the odds were certainly stacked against us this year. The cool temperatures and incessant rain kept us on our toes,
however, there is always a silver lining. The cool vintage delivered us near optimal ripening conditions with daily temperatures above 15 degrees Celsius
before 9 am and not rising above 30 degrees until late afternoon. These conditions were perfect for maximum flavor and color development and as a
result the wines we have made this vintage, both reds and whites, are of exceptional quality.
VINIFICATION
Whole bunches of Teroldego were hand-harvested and placed in the bottom of open-top fermenters, which helps to create more floral characters and
elegance in the wine. The remaining grapes were crushed and pumped on top then cooled to below 10 degrees Celsius. We maintained a low temperature
for 5 days allowing natural fermentation to begin before moving the tanks into the sun to warm up and adding yeast to continue fermentation. The tanks
were hand-plunged to encourage soft extraction of flavor and chalky silky tannins. The grapes were lightly pressed and the wine was placed into stainless
steel for 5 months before bottling with no preservatives added.
MATURATION

THE WINE
An intense purple color with a bright ruby hue. Aromas of fresh berries leap from the glass; redcurrant, raspberry, blackberry, and hints
of dried herbs. This follows onto the fruit-driven palate where you will experience is a melody of berries, sweet herbs, and dark
chocolate. The tannins are soft and chalky with plenty of length, making want more. Enjoy with Italian pork sausages and polenta.
