Winemaking notes

This wine is a six-barrel selection of the best barrels out of the premium hand-picked batches from the Westhaven Vineyard.

Two small batches of Westhaven Pinot Noir stood out in 2021. One was clone 667 fermented with 30% whole bunches, and the other was 777 fruit with 15% whole bunch, The blend was an even mix of the two batches– to give 22%, whole bunch and two new barrels were picked to give 33% new oak.

The wine was matured for 15 months in barrel, before being racked to tank, settled, and bottled without fining or filtration. Awards & Accolades
