This specific parcel is farmed by an old apprentice of Stein’s, though Philip is very involved in all the farming decisions. The grapes were de-stemmed, crushed and fermented on the skins for nine days. The cap was only gently turned a little, by hand, once a day. The idea is not to extract, so much as it is to softly infuse. There were no punchdowns or pumpovers. It was then pressed and aged for five months in barrel and one month in steel to settle. Before bottling, 20ppm total of S02 were added; bottled unfined and unfiltered.
