A juicy palate follows with notes of Meyer lemon, green apple and pear that pulls through to a delicious finish. Viticulture Notes: Grapes for our Pinot Grigio are sourced from select vineyards throughout California. The 2021 vintage experienced ongoing dry conditions in the state. A mild summer increased hangtime, which allowed the grapes to develop more flavor concentration. Harvest 2021 produced slightly lower yields of excellent quality fruit. Winemaking Notes: The grapes for our 2021 Pinot Grigio were harvested at peak ripeness, then fermented at low to moderate temperatures between 55⁰-62⁰ F. Our winemaker carefully selected aromatic yeast to enhance aromas and create an expressive mouthfeel. After fermentation, all lots were aged in stainless steel tanks until bottling to preserve brightness and balance.
