Winemaker Notes
The grapes for this wine were hand picked from two different vineyards in the south Okanagan just a few days apart from each other. The grapes however were blended in tank and fermented as one. During fermentation the grapes received daily pump overs for about two weeks until fermentation was complete. After fermentation was complete the grapes were pressed and racked to barrel. While in barrel the wine went through Malolactic fermentation. After MLF was complete the wine was returned to tank for a homogeneous blend. And then once again put back into barrel, were it stayed for 18 months until it was bottled.
