White Pinot Noir
A red grape processed like a white grape.
Started doing this back in 2011 with one barrel, as an experiment. All native primary and secondary fermentation in a stainless steel barrel. Only difference now is that I have TWO stainless steel barrels! Nose of pear and ruby red grapefruit. Imbibe and a lush texture coats the mouth showing flavors of ripe Mirabelle plums, freshly sliced pineapple and Pinot noir of all things! A fun wine to share with those who might not like "white wine" since it should really be red...

WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Making a purpose “built” wine of Pinot noir in the methodology of white wine. Grapes come in, whole cluster pressed with lots of solids and put into stainless steel barrels. Fermentation is all native without any additions other than heat to get it to go dry by the first quarter. An amazingly complex wine even though it was made quickly.
