WINEMAKERS NOTES

2021 featured a continuation of low precipitation which contributed to medium to low yields resulting in wines of great concentration and structure. Average and ideal temperatures dominated the Russian River Valley that summer, leading to slow ripening and intensely flavored grapes. Our Santa Nella Pinot Noir grapes were night harvested on September 3rd and 9th. We gently destemmed the grapes into stainless steel tanks and fermented for 14 days on the skins before sending the free run to oak barrels where the wine aged 14 months.
