Here’s a little behind-the-scenes, step-by-step process for how we make our Dry Rosé!

PICKING

Our team hand-picks these estate grown Blaufrankisch grapes into vented bins, which we chill overnight in our walk-in cooler before processing them the following morning.

LOADING

Our w**ery is designed for gravity-fed processing, so we never pump grapes or must. Moving grapes without pumps means less mechanical handling and helps avoid extracting bitter compounds from the skins and seeds.

WHOLE CLUSTER PRESSING

Because we hand-harvest all of our estate fruit, we’re able to press whole clusters that are still attached to their stems. Whole-cluster pressing is a gentler way to extract the juice and gives us more control over what makes its way into the finished w**e.

JUICE!

Our horizontal bladder press holds about 7,000 pounds of grapes, or roughly 200 cases worth of w**e in a single press cycle. An air-filled bladder slowly expands inside the press, gently squeezing the juice from the grapes.

TASTING

The press cycle takes about three hours, with the pressure gradually increasing as we go. Throughout the process, we’re constantly tasting the juice.

Eventually, we make what’s called a press cut, separating the early “heart” of the juice from the later press fraction. Those portions are fermented separately and eventually evaluated blind. It’s one of the ways we can decide which parts of the press make the best contribution to the finished w**e.

EMPTYING THE POMACE

When the press is finished, what’s left behind - the skins, stems, and seeds - is called pomace. We add it to our compost pile, where it spends about a year breaking down naturally into nutrient-rich soil. Eventually, that compost goes right back into the vineyard to help replenish the soil and close the loop.

Pinot Noir, AKA the heartbreak grape.

Delicate clusters, finicky to grow outside of perfect conditions, yet capable of producing some of the world’s most coveted w**es (and some of our favorites too!)

After the freeze damage in April, we’re looking at yields of around 25% of a normal crop, so we’re focusing our estate fruit towards a more limited selection of our w**e portfolio.

This year all of our Pinot Noir will go into our Tuxedo, a still white w**e made from gently pressed black grapes. In typical Pinot fashion, it requires a delicate touch in the cellar to extract all the flavor we want without the color that we don’t. After fermentation in neutral French oak, it often yields one of our richest and most texturally interesting white w**es.
