2023 Sonoma-Cutrer Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

Grapes were hand-picked early each morning into small bins, then hand-sorted and gently destemmed. The wine underwent a four-day cold soak followed by eight to twelve days of fermentation, with hand punch-downs in small, open-top fermenters. After fermentation, it was gently basket pressed and racked into barrels, where it aged for 11 months before the final blend was assembled and bottled. The wine was then aged for an additional six months in bottle before release.
