TASTING NOTES
This wine was fermented at cool temperature in 100% stainless steel tanks with no malolactic fermentation to preserve the crisp acidity and varietal fruit character. A noticeable tropical fruit aroma and flavor of grapefruit is supported by underlying toast and nuts caused by extended sur lees ageing. It is from Live Certified Sustainable and
Salmon Safe vineyards and winery both which have developed proactive and preventative, sustainable agricultural practices.
