CELLAR INFORMATION A blend of Grenache Blanc / Piquepoul Blanc / Roussanne / Marsanne. The grapes were picked at different stages. The fruit was pre-cooled and whole bunch pressed before spontaneous fermentation took place. The wine was barrel fermented and aged in old 500L French oak barrels. A portion of the Grenache was whole bunch fermented for added texture and complexity. The components went through 80% malolactic fermentation. The wines were aged for 1 year in barrel prior blending and bottling and spent six months in bottle before release. VINEYARD INFORMATION The 2022 vintage will be remembered for a cool season before harvest, followed by a sudden temperature spike from January. Good vineyard practices were followed, and canopies were managed well, which delivered exceptional grape analyses and wine quality. Temperatures rose sharply during early January, causing sunburn on exposed bunches. The hot weather in January also accelerated the early cultivars’ ripening dates, although we harvested more than a week later than in the previous year. Frequent high temperatures during February further contributed to harvest dates shifting sooner and harvesting returned to normal timing by the end of February. We didn’t experience any crop losses nor any downy mildew and powdery mildew infections.
