winemaker’s notes
Harvested on August 26 and foot stomped in open top bin. All spontaneous fermentations on skins and stems with twice-daily punchdowns for 10 days. Only free run wine transferred to Flextank (no pressing). Wine sulfited and bottled on March 13, 2022. That’s it.

nota bene
Only free run used. The press wine was combined with piquette and honey to create our spritzy “Beequette” in cans.
