Winemaking Notes:
Fruit sourced from select Niagara vineyards was hand picked and destemmed into stainless steel along with the addition of 25% whole cluster fruit. Approx. 20% of the volume was bled off for rosé, and to concentrate the remaining must. A second portion was machine harvested and optically sorted and fermented whole berry. Both batches were fermented warm in stainless steel on skins for 28 days before being pressed. Aged in used French oak before being filtered and bottled.
