Vineyard Notes
100% of the Grenache for this wine came from our estate Spice Cabinet Vineyard located in the Horse Heaven Hills. This vineyard sits on a southeast slope above the Columbia River. The orientation of the block allows for morning sun exposure of the fruit, while avoiding the intense afternoon rays.
Production Notes
The Grenache was machine harvested to allow for early color extraction from the skins. Once at the winery, the grapes were sent directly to the press. We allowed the grapes to sit overnight to continue to extract color from the skins. After the 24 hour soak, we drained off all the free run juice before beginning to press the grapes. The light pink free run juice was combined with the darker juice that was pressed from the skins and allowed to cold settle for two days. The clean juice was racked away and inoculated with X5 yeast to enhance aromatics. The wine was fermented cool over a period of 25 days, allowing for great aroma development.
