The Winemaking
Our Pinot Noirs are a blend of four Dijon Pinot Noir clones designated for premium dry wine: 114, 115, 667 and 777. In addition, these four clones are planted on three different root stocks. What Bordeaux achieves with blends of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot, we achieve wholly within the Pinot Noir variety, using clone/rootstock combinations which each exhibit unique characteristics. The resulting Pinot Noir “blend” is a complex portfolio of rich color, flavors, aromas and robust structure. At harvest, the crushing operation gently separates berries and stems producing the must that is fermented in chilled stainless steel tanks. Some juice is drawn off and cold-fermented for our Rose‘. After fermentation is complete the juice is gently pressed off to settling tanks, then gravity-fed into oak barrels, 30% of which are new Hungarian oak, with its tight grain that imparts more subtle tannins. As the wine ages in the barrels, for 16-18 months, it is stirred occasionally but no racking is done. This imparts soft tannins that accentuate, but not dominate, the wine. Finally, the wine is gravity-fed into the bottling line so as to minimize “bottle-shock”. This minimal-intervention winemaking style along with the barrel choice supports and highlights the delicate nuances of flavor in the Pinot Noir (and our Syrah) .
Our Syrah is a blend of three different Dijon clones: 383, 470, 525.
