Hand harvested and whole bunch pressed, the free run Chardonnay juice was steel tank fermented and left to undergo malolactic fermentation in late spring, stirred on lees throughout.

The Pinot Noir was lightly pressed and fermented cool in seasoned French barriques, allowed to mature on light lees until blended in early January in the next year to prepare for tirage nearly one year from the harvest date.
