Palate
This inaugural release of Firehouse White has aromas of walking into a peach orchard in bloom, with guava and hints of Golden Delicious apple, vibrant acidity and a touch of viscosity lead to flavors of stone fruits, honey and slate minerality.
Winemaking
Dropped by gravity straight to the press, the juice is pumped directly to barrel or tank and chilled, inoculated with Chardonnay 3079 yeast, primary fermentation started and finished, secondary fermentation started but completed to preferred taste, typically around 50% completion. All fermentation is done in a 58 degree Fahrenheit barrel room.
