early for Washington
• August temperatures were slightly cooler allowing for a longer hang-time
with good yields
• Consistent September with cool nights produced richly structured wines,
ripe flavors that retained high natural acids
• Hand-harvested grapes
• Bottling date: May 10, 2016
• Small lot fermentations in open top stainless steel tanks
• The cap was manually punched down twice a day
• Pressed and transferred to barrels to complete secondary fermentation
